However, using the ip_gre module is more complex than simply inserting ip_wccp, requiring actual configuration of a dummy gre interface. I've found it's easier just to use the decapsulating ip_wccp.
And this is partly why ip_wccp is a kludge, it provides no security what so ever and accepts any WCCP packets routed to the host, no questions asked.
The other reason is the inability to coexists with normal GRE.
