Akos,

You are right ASA does not support any GRE tunnels. But from what I
have read by googling "squid asa wccp" is that tunnel is GRE on the
proxy server side where as ASA is WCCP. Like I mentioned that I do
see ASA REDIRECTING the packets . I see the redirected packets
appearing on the proxy server but then I don't get any response back.
I think there could be some issue with iptables rule maybe.
