Explanation
WCCP (Web Cache Communication Protocol) is used to automatically redirect client traffic to the WSA without requiring any client-side configuration. This is the defining characteristic of transparent proxy mode - end users are unaware that their traffic is being intercepted and inspected. For WCCP-based redirection, the WSA must operate in transparent mode so it can accept and process traffic that was not explicitly sent to it by the client. Explicit (forward) proxy mode requires clients to knowingly send traffic to the proxy, making WCCP unnecessary.
