Hi There

There is some good information on the TCP intercept function on the following sites

Cisco Doc CD Site: http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios112/intercpt.htm#xtocid102795

Sample chapter taken from the Cisco Press book "Cisco Router Firewall Security": http://www.ciscopress.com/articles/article.asp?p=345618&seqNum=3
