Again, it's a perspective thing.
Typically, we think of working for clients. From that, the web requests
come IN from our local LANs and go OUT towards the Internet.
For local server caching stuff, we look the opposite direction. The only
times web requests will come IN from our Internet-connected interface is if
they are looking for our local web servers.
So the same principles apply. Pick the Internet-connected interface, use
the redirect "in" command and that will provide caching support for your
local web servers.

Dear Scott,
Can you say more about how the "caching for your won servers" be done by
WCCP?
Thanks a lot.
