Kambiz,
on #1, wccp group 61/62 only redirect TCP traffic, so RTP is not going
to get caught AFAIK, and though SIP can run over TCP, I would usually
associate "voip traffic" to RTP.

General question: can this be done in CEF at all ? I.e. TCP redirection.
I know cisco says to enable CEF in the routers, etc.
But isn't CEF a fast destination IP controlled thing ? So if the router
has to differentiate TCP from the rest, it would have to punt the traffic.

Enter the architecture dependent world. Some chasis do have extensions
to deal with L4 on hardware for things like QoS and ACLs, but here we
need differentiated forwarding based on L4. I'm suspicious that this is
a no no for an ISR.

Thoughts ?
