Have you loaded the WCCP kernel module?

There is a WCCP kernel module for Solaris in the Oops proxy source tree I
think.

The WCCP kernel module is responsible for decapsulating the WCCP/GRE 
packets the WCCP router encapsulates the redirected traffic within. If you 
do not have this your proxy server box will know nothing about what the 
packets redirected to it by the router is.

In addition to the WCCP kernel module you also need interception rules to 
intercept the packets once decapsulated and have them delivered to the 
proxy port. This is the job of ip-filter in a Solaris WCCP setup.
