how to tell IP ADDR or DNS for refresh pattern in squid.conf

Hello.
        I have been experimenting lately with various refresh rate
settings on squid, as well as transparant proxying under linux. What I
would like to do is have squid cache normal proxy requests one way but
have it cache transparantly-redirected requests differently (for much less
time probably). This will allow properly configured web browsers to get
maximum usage from the cache, but will still allow limited caching of
pointcast/vrml/non-configured web browsers.

        This sounds simple in theory- a normal squid access is logged as
'www.somehost.com', whereas transparant redirects are logged as strictly
IP numbers. How would one go about configuring a 'refresh_pattern' rule
that would only act on straight IP numbers?

eg.
refresh_pattern {ip numbers} 10 10% 60
(normal) refresh_pattern .gif... 1440 50% 10080

Many thanks in advance....
