cccac0a2 | 33 | WELCOME TO SQUID @VERSION@ |
34 | ---------------------------- | |
3a278cb8 | 35 | |
cccac0a2 | 36 | This is the default Squid configuration file. You may wish |
37 | to look at the Squid home page (http://www.squid-cache.org/) | |
38 | for the FAQ and other documentation. | |
3a278cb8 | 39 | |
cccac0a2 | 40 | The default Squid config file shows what the defaults for |
41 | various options happen to be. If you don't need to change the | |
42 | default, you shouldn't uncomment the line. Doing so may cause | |
43 | run-time problems. In some cases "none" refers to no default | |
44 | setting at all, while in other cases it refers to a valid | |
45 | option - the comments for that keyword indicate if this is the | |
46 | case. | |

41bd17a4 | 51 | OPTIONS FOR AUTHENTICATION |
5473c134 | 52 | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
53 | COMMENT_END | |
54 | ||
41bd17a4 | 55 | NAME: auth_param |
56 | TYPE: authparam | |
57 | LOC: Config.authConfiguration | |
cccac0a2 | 58 | DEFAULT: none |
59 | DOC_START | |
41bd17a4 | 60 | This is used to define parameters for the various authentication |
61 | schemes supported by Squid. | |
cccac0a2 | 62 | |
41bd17a4 | 63 | format: auth_param scheme parameter [setting] |
cccac0a2 | 64 | |
41bd17a4 | 65 | The order in which authentication schemes are presented to the client is |
66 | dependent on the order the scheme first appears in config file. IE | |
67 | has a bug (it's not RFC 2617 compliant) in that it will use the basic | |
68 | scheme if basic is the first entry presented, even if more secure | |
69 | schemes are presented. For now use the order in the recommended | |
70 | settings section below. If other browsers have difficulties (don't | |
71 | recognize the schemes offered even if you are using basic) either | |
72 | put basic first, or disable the other schemes (by commenting out their | |
73 | program entry). | |
cccac0a2 | 74 | |
41bd17a4 | 75 | Once an authentication scheme is fully configured, it can only be |
76 | shutdown by shutting squid down and restarting. Changes can be made on | |
77 | the fly and activated with a reconfigure. I.E. You can change to a | |
78 | different helper, but not unconfigure the helper completely. | |
cccac0a2 | 79 | |
41bd17a4 | 80 | Please note that while this directive defines how Squid processes |
81 | authentication it does not automatically activate authentication. | |
82 | To use authentication you must in addition make use of ACLs based | |
83 | on login name in http_access (proxy_auth, proxy_auth_regex or | |
84 | external with %LOGIN used in the format tag). The browser will be | |
85 | challenged for authentication on the first such acl encountered | |
86 | in http_access processing and will also be re-challenged for new | |
87 | login credentials if the request is being denied by a proxy_auth | |
88 | type acl. | |
cccac0a2 | 89 | |
41bd17a4 | 90 | WARNING: authentication can't be used in a transparently intercepting |
91 | proxy as the client then thinks it is talking to an origin server and | |
92 | not the proxy. This is a limitation of bending the TCP/IP protocol to | |
93 | transparently intercepting port 80, not a limitation in Squid. | |
cccac0a2 | 94 | |
41bd17a4 | 95 | === Parameters for the basic scheme follow. === |
cccac0a2 | 96 | |
41bd17a4 | 97 | "program" cmdline |
98 | Specify the command for the external authenticator. Such a program | |
99 | reads a line containing "username password" and replies "OK" or | |
100 | "ERR" in an endless loop. "ERR" responses may optionally be followed | |
101 | by a error description available as %m in the returned error page. | |
102 | If you use an authenticator, make sure you have 1 acl of type proxy_auth. | |
cccac0a2 | 103 | |
41bd17a4 | 104 | By default, the basic authentication scheme is not used unless a |
105 | program is specified. | |
cccac0a2 | 106 | |
41bd17a4 | 107 | If you want to use the traditional NCSA proxy authentication, set |
108 | this line to something like | |
307b83b7 | 109 | |
41bd17a4 | 110 | auth_param basic program @DEFAULT_PREFIX@/libexec/ncsa_auth @DEFAULT_PREFIX@/etc/passwd |
9e7dbc51 | 111 | |
41bd17a4 | 112 | "children" numberofchildren |
113 | The number of authenticator processes to spawn. If you start too few | |
114 | Squid will have to wait for them to process a backlog of credential | |
115 | verifications, slowing it down. When password verifications are | |
116 | done via a (slow) network you are likely to need lots of | |
117 | authenticator processes. | |
118 | auth_param basic children 5 | |
9e7dbc51 | 119 | |
41bd17a4 | 120 | "concurrency" concurrency |
121 | The number of concurrent requests the helper can process. | |
122 | The default of 0 is used for helpers who only supports | |
123 | one request at a time. Setting this changes the protocol used to | |
124 | include a channel number first on the request/response line, allowing | |
125 | multiple requests to be sent to the same helper in parallell without | |
126 | wating for the response. | |
127 | Must not be set unless it's known the helper supports this. | |
128 | auth_param basic concurrency 0 | |
0fdafae7 | 129 | |
41bd17a4 | 130 | "realm" realmstring |
131 | Specifies the realm name which is to be reported to the | |
132 | client for the basic proxy authentication scheme (part of | |
133 | the text the user will see when prompted their username and | |
134 | password). There is no default. | |
135 | auth_param basic realm Squid proxy-caching web server | |
d1b63fc8 | 136 | |
41bd17a4 | 137 | "credentialsttl" timetolive |
138 | Specifies how long squid assumes an externally validated | |
139 | username:password pair is valid for - in other words how | |
140 | often the helper program is called for that user. Set this | |
141 | low to force revalidation with short lived passwords. Note | |
142 | setting this high does not impact your susceptibility | |
143 | to replay attacks unless you are using an one-time password | |
144 | system (such as SecureID). If you are using such a system, | |
145 | you will be vulnerable to replay attacks unless you also | |
146 | use the max_user_ip ACL in an http_access rule. | |
cccac0a2 | 147 | |
41bd17a4 | 148 | "casesensitive" on|off |
149 | Specifies if usernames are case sensitive. Most user databases are | |
150 | case insensitive allowing the same username to be spelled using both | |
151 | lower and upper case letters, but some are case sensitive. This | |
152 | makes a big difference for user_max_ip ACL processing and similar. | |
153 | auth_param basic casesensitive off | |
cccac0a2 | 154 | |
41bd17a4 | 155 | === Parameters for the digest scheme follow === |
cccac0a2 | 156 | |
41bd17a4 | 157 | "program" cmdline |
158 | Specify the command for the external authenticator. Such | |
159 | a program reads a line containing "username":"realm" and | |
160 | replies with the appropriate H(A1) value hex encoded or | |
161 | ERR if the user (or his H(A1) hash) does not exists. | |
162 | See rfc 2616 for the definition of H(A1). | |
163 | "ERR" responses may optionally be followed by a error description | |
164 | available as %m in the returned error page. | |
cccac0a2 | 165 | |
41bd17a4 | 166 | By default, the digest authentication scheme is not used unless a |
167 | program is specified. | |
b8c0c06d | 168 | |
41bd17a4 | 169 | If you want to use a digest authenticator, set this line to |
170 | something like | |
cccac0a2 | 171 | |
41bd17a4 | 172 | auth_param digest program @DEFAULT_PREFIX@/bin/digest_auth_pw @DEFAULT_PREFIX@/etc/digpass |
cccac0a2 | 173 | |
41bd17a4 | 174 | "children" numberofchildren |
175 | The number of authenticator processes to spawn (no default). | |
176 | If you start too few Squid will have to wait for them to | |
177 | process a backlog of H(A1) calculations, slowing it down. | |
178 | When the H(A1) calculations are done via a (slow) network | |
179 | you are likely to need lots of authenticator processes. | |
180 | auth_param digest children 5 | |
cccac0a2 | 181 | |
41bd17a4 | 182 | "realm" realmstring |
183 | Specifies the realm name which is to be reported to the | |
184 | client for the digest proxy authentication scheme (part of | |
185 | the text the user will see when prompted their username and | |
186 | password). There is no default. | |
187 | auth_param digest realm Squid proxy-caching web server | |
cccac0a2 | 188 | |
41bd17a4 | 189 | "nonce_garbage_interval" timeinterval |
190 | Specifies the interval that nonces that have been issued | |
191 | to client_agent's are checked for validity. | |
cccac0a2 | 192 | |
41bd17a4 | 193 | "nonce_max_duration" timeinterval |
194 | Specifies the maximum length of time a given nonce will be | |
195 | valid for. | |
cccac0a2 | 196 | |
41bd17a4 | 197 | "nonce_max_count" number |
198 | Specifies the maximum number of times a given nonce can be | |
199 | used. | |
cccac0a2 | 200 | |
41bd17a4 | 201 | "nonce_strictness" on|off |
202 | Determines if squid requires strict increment-by-1 behavior | |
203 | for nonce counts, or just incrementing (off - for use when | |
204 | useragents generate nonce counts that occasionally miss 1 | |
205 | (ie, 1,2,4,6)). Default off. | |
cccac0a2 | 206 | |
41bd17a4 | 207 | "check_nonce_count" on|off |
208 | This directive if set to off can disable the nonce count check | |
209 | completely to work around buggy digest qop implementations in | |
210 | certain mainstream browser versions. Default on to check the | |
211 | nonce count to protect from authentication replay attacks. | |
cccac0a2 | 212 | |
41bd17a4 | 213 | "post_workaround" on|off |
214 | This is a workaround to certain buggy browsers who sends | |
215 | an incorrect request digest in POST requests when reusing | |
216 | the same nonce as acquired earlier on a GET request. | |
cccac0a2 | 217 | |
41bd17a4 | 218 | === NTLM scheme options follow === |
cccac0a2 | 219 | |
41bd17a4 | 220 | "program" cmdline |
221 | Specify the command for the external NTLM authenticator. | |
222 | Such a program reads exchanged NTLMSSP packets with | |
223 | the browser via Squid until authentication is completed. | |
224 | If you use an NTLM authenticator, make sure you have 1 acl | |
225 | of type proxy_auth. By default, the NTLM authenticator_program | |
226 | is not used. | |
cccac0a2 | 227 | |
41bd17a4 | 228 | auth_param ntlm program @DEFAULT_PREFIX@/bin/ntlm_auth |
cccac0a2 | 229 | |
41bd17a4 | 230 | "children" numberofchildren |
231 | The number of authenticator processes to spawn (no default). | |
232 | If you start too few Squid will have to wait for them to | |
233 | process a backlog of credential verifications, slowing it | |
234 | down. When credential verifications are done via a (slow) | |
235 | network you are likely to need lots of authenticator | |
236 | processes. | |
cccac0a2 | 237 | |
41bd17a4 | 238 | auth_param ntlm children 5 |
cccac0a2 | 239 | |
41bd17a4 | 240 | "keep_alive" on|off |
241 | If you experience problems with PUT/POST requests when using the | |
242 | Negotiate authentication scheme then you can try setting this to | |
243 | off. This will cause Squid to forcibly close the connection on | |
244 | the initial requests where the browser asks which schemes are | |
245 | supported by the proxy. | |
cccac0a2 | 246 | |
41bd17a4 | 247 | auth_param ntlm keep_alive on |
cccac0a2 | 248 | |
41bd17a4 | 249 | === Options for configuring the NEGOTIATE auth-scheme follow === |
cccac0a2 | 250 | |
41bd17a4 | 251 | "program" cmdline |
252 | Specify the command for the external Negotiate authenticator. | |
253 | This protocol is used in Microsoft Active-Directory enabled setups with | |
254 | the Microsoft Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox browsers. | |
255 | Its main purpose is to exchange credentials with the Squid proxy | |
256 | using the Kerberos mechanisms. | |
257 | If you use a Negotiate authenticator, make sure you have at least one acl | |
258 | of type proxy_auth active. By default, the negotiate authenticator_program | |
259 | is not used. | |
260 | The only supported program for this role is the ntlm_auth | |
261 | program distributed as part of Samba, version 4 or later. | |
cccac0a2 | 262 | |
41bd17a4 | 263 | auth_param negotiate program @DEFAULT_PREFIX@/bin/ntlm_auth --helper-protocol=gss-spnego |
cccac0a2 | 264 | |
41bd17a4 | 265 | "children" numberofchildren |
266 | The number of authenticator processes to spawn (no default). | |
267 | If you start too few Squid will have to wait for them to | |
268 | process a backlog of credential verifications, slowing it | |
269 | down. When crendential verifications are done via a (slow) | |
270 | network you are likely to need lots of authenticator | |
271 | processes. | |
272 | auth_param negotiate children 5 | |
d3803853 | 273 | |
41bd17a4 | 274 | "keep_alive" on|off |

305 | TYPE: time_t | |
306 | DEFAULT: 1 hour | |
307 | LOC: Config.authenticateGCInterval | |
308 | DOC_START | |
309 | The time period between garbage collection across the username cache. | |
310 | This is a tradeoff between memory utilization (long intervals - say | |
311 | 2 days) and CPU (short intervals - say 1 minute). Only change if you | |
312 | have good reason to. | |

316 | TYPE: time_t | |
317 | DEFAULT: 1 hour | |
318 | LOC: Config.authenticateTTL | |
319 | DOC_START | |
320 | The time a user & their credentials stay in the logged in | |
321 | user cache since their last request. When the garbage | |
322 | interval passes, all user credentials that have passed their | |
323 | TTL are removed from memory. | |

328 | LOC: Config.authenticateIpTTL | |
329 | DEFAULT: 0 seconds | |
330 | DOC_START | |
331 | If you use proxy authentication and the 'max_user_ip' ACL, | |
332 | this directive controls how long Squid remembers the IP | |
333 | addresses associated with each user. Use a small value | |
334 | (e.g., 60 seconds) if your users might change addresses | |
335 | quickly, as is the case with dialups. You might be safe | |
336 | using a larger value (e.g., 2 hours) in a corporate LAN | |
337 | environment with relatively static address assignments. | |

803 | This option specifies the maximum size of a reply body. It can be | |
804 | used to prevent users from downloading very large files, such as | |
805 | MP3's and movies. When the reply headers are received, the | |
806 | reply_body_max_size lines are processed, and the first line where | |
807 | all (if any) listed ACLs are true is used as the maximum body size | |
808 | for this reply. | |
809 | ||
810 | This size is checked twice. First when we get the reply headers, | |
811 | we check the content-length value. If the content length value exists | |
812 | and is larger than the allowed size, the request is denied and the | |
813 | user receives an error message that says "the request or reply | |
814 | is too large." If there is no content-length, and the reply | |
815 | size exceeds this limit, the client's connection is just closed | |
816 | and they will receive a partial reply. | |
817 | ||
818 | WARNING: downstream caches probably can not detect a partial reply | |
819 | if there is no content-length header, so they will cache | |
820 | partial responses and give them out as hits. You should NOT | |
821 | use this option if you have downstream caches. | |
822 | ||
823 | WARNING: A maximum size smaller than the size of squid's error messages | |
824 | will cause an infinite loop and crash squid. Ensure that the smallest | |
825 | non-zero value you use is greater that the maximum header size plus | |
826 | the size of your largest error page. | |

842 | Usage: port [options] | |
843 | hostname:port [options] | |
844 | 1.2.3.4:port [options] | |
845 | ||
846 | The socket addresses where Squid will listen for HTTP client | |
847 | requests. You may specify multiple socket addresses. | |
848 | There are three forms: port alone, hostname with port, and | |
849 | IP address with port. If you specify a hostname or IP | |
850 | address, Squid binds the socket to that specific | |
851 | address. This replaces the old 'tcp_incoming_address' | |
852 | option. Most likely, you do not need to bind to a specific | |
853 | address, so you can use the port number alone. | |
854 | ||
855 | If you are running Squid in accelerator mode, you | |
856 | probably want to listen on port 80 also, or instead. | |
857 | ||
858 | The -a command line option may be used to specify additional | |
859 | port(s) where Squid listens for proxy request. Such ports will | |
860 | be plain proxy ports with no options. | |
861 | ||
862 | You may specify multiple socket addresses on multiple lines. | |
863 | ||
864 | Options: | |
865 | ||
866 | transparent Support for transparent interception of | |
867 | outgoing requests without browser settings. | |
868 | ||
869 | tproxy Support Linux TPROXY for spoofing outgoing | |
870 | connections using the client IP address. | |
871 | ||
872 | accel Accelerator mode. Also needs at least one of | |
873 | vhost / vport / defaultsite. | |
874 | ||
875 | defaultsite=domainname | |
876 | What to use for the Host: header if it is not present | |
877 | in a request. Determines what site (not origin server) | |
878 | accelerators should consider the default. | |
879 | Implies accel. | |
880 | ||
881 | vhost Accelerator mode using Host header for virtual | |
882 | domain support. Implies accel. | |
883 | ||
884 | vport Accelerator with IP based virtual host support. | |
885 | Implies accel. | |
886 | ||
887 | vport=NN As above, but uses specified port number rather | |
888 | than the http_port number. Implies accel. | |
889 | ||
890 | protocol= Protocol to reconstruct accelerated requests with. | |
891 | Defaults to http. | |
892 | ||
893 | disable-pmtu-discovery= | |
894 | Control Path-MTU discovery usage: | |
895 | off lets OS decide on what to do (default). | |
896 | transparent disable PMTU discovery when transparent | |
897 | support is enabled. | |
898 | always disable always PMTU discovery. | |
899 | ||
900 | In many setups of transparently intercepting proxies | |
901 | Path-MTU discovery can not work on traffic towards the | |
902 | clients. This is the case when the intercepting device | |
903 | does not fully track connections and fails to forward | |
904 | ICMP must fragment messages to the cache server. If you | |
905 | have such setup and experience that certain clients | |
906 | sporadically hang or never complete requests set | |
907 | disable-pmtu-discovery option to 'transparent'. | |
908 | ||
909 | If you run Squid on a dual-homed machine with an internal | |
910 | and an external interface we recommend you to specify the | |
911 | internal address:port in http_port. This way Squid will only be | |
912 | visible on the internal address. | |

927 | ||
928 | The socket address where Squid will listen for HTTPS client | |
929 | requests. | |
930 | ||
931 | This is really only useful for situations where you are running | |
932 | squid in accelerator mode and you want to do the SSL work at the | |
933 | accelerator level. | |

935 | You may specify multiple socket addresses on multiple lines, | |
936 | each with their own SSL certificate and/or options. | |
937 | ||
938 | Options: | |
939 | ||
940 | accel Accelerator mode. Also needs at least one of | |
941 | defaultsite or vhost. | |
942 | ||
943 | defaultsite= The name of the https site presented on | |
944 | this port. Implies accel. | |
945 | ||
946 | vhost Accelerator mode using Host header for virtual | |
947 | domain support. Requires a wildcard certificate | |
948 | or other certificate valid for more than one domain. | |
949 | Implies accel. | |

1292 | This option does not affect parent selection if a peering | |
1293 | protocol is not in use. | |
cccac0a2 | 1294 | |
41bd17a4 | 1295 | use 'basetime=n' to specify a base amount to |
1296 | be subtracted from round trip times of parents. | |
1297 | It is subtracted before division by weight in calculating | |
1298 | which parent to fectch from. If the rtt is less than the | |
1299 | base time the rtt is set to a minimal value. | |
cccac0a2 | 1300 | |
41bd17a4 | 1301 | use 'ttl=n' to specify a IP multicast TTL to use |
1302 | when sending an ICP queries to this address. | |
1303 | Only useful when sending to a multicast group. | |
1304 | Because we don't accept ICP replies from random | |
1305 | hosts, you must configure other group members as | |
1306 | peers with the 'multicast-responder' option below. | |
5473c134 | 1307 | |
41bd17a4 | 1308 | use 'no-query' to NOT send ICP queries to this |
1309 | neighbor. | |
5473c134 | 1310 | |
41bd17a4 | 1311 | use 'background-ping' to only send ICP queries to this |
1312 | neighbor infrequently. This is used to keep the neighbor | |
1313 | round trip time updated and is usually used in | |
1314 | conjunction with weighted-round-robin. | |
cccac0a2 | 1315 | |
41bd17a4 | 1316 | use 'default' if this is a parent cache which can |
1317 | be used as a "last-resort" if a peer cannot be located | |
1318 | by any of the peer-selection mechanisms. | |
1319 | If specified more than once, only the first is used. | |
cccac0a2 | 1320 | |
41bd17a4 | 1321 | use 'round-robin' to define a set of parents which |
1322 | should be used in a round-robin fashion in the | |
1323 | absence of any ICP queries. | |
cccac0a2 | 1324 | |
41bd17a4 | 1325 | use 'weighted-round-robin' to define a set of parents |
1326 | which should be used in a round-robin fashion with the | |
1327 | frequency of each parent being based on the round trip | |
1328 | time. Closer parents are used more often. | |
1329 | Usually used for background-ping parents. | |
cccac0a2 | 1330 | |
41bd17a4 | 1331 | use 'carp' to define a set of parents which should |
1332 | be used as a CARP array. The requests will be | |
1333 | distributed among the parents based on the CARP load | |
1334 | balancing hash function based on their weigth. | |
cccac0a2 | 1335 | |
41bd17a4 | 1336 | 'multicast-responder' indicates the named peer |
1337 | is a member of a multicast group. ICP queries will | |
1338 | not be sent directly to the peer, but ICP replies | |
1339 | will be accepted from it. | |
cccac0a2 | 1340 | |
41bd17a4 | 1341 | 'closest-only' indicates that, for ICP_OP_MISS |
1342 | replies, we'll only forward CLOSEST_PARENT_MISSes | |
1343 | and never FIRST_PARENT_MISSes. | |
cccac0a2 | 1344 | |
41bd17a4 | 1345 | use 'no-digest' to NOT request cache digests from |
1346 | this neighbor. | |
cccac0a2 | 1347 | |
41bd17a4 | 1348 | 'no-netdb-exchange' disables requesting ICMP |
1349 | RTT database (NetDB) from the neighbor. | |
cccac0a2 | 1350 | |
41bd17a4 | 1351 | use 'no-delay' to prevent access to this neighbor |
1352 | from influencing the delay pools. | |
7d90757b | 1353 | |
41bd17a4 | 1354 | use 'login=user:password' if this is a personal/workgroup |
1355 | proxy and your parent requires proxy authentication. | |
1356 | Note: The string can include URL escapes (i.e. %20 for | |
1357 | spaces). This also means % must be written as %%. | |
7d90757b | 1358 | |
41bd17a4 | 1359 | use 'login=PASS' if users must authenticate against |
1360 | the upstream proxy or in the case of a reverse proxy | |
1361 | configuration, the origin web server. This will pass | |
1362 | the users credentials as they are to the peer. | |
1363 | This only works for the Basic HTTP authentication scheme. | |
1364 | Note: To combine this with proxy_auth both proxies must | |
1365 | share the same user database as HTTP only allows for | |
1366 | a single login (one for proxy, one for origin server). | |
1367 | Also be warned this will expose your users proxy | |
1368 | password to the peer. USE WITH CAUTION | |
7d90757b | 1369 | |
41bd17a4 | 1370 | use 'login=*:password' to pass the username to the |
1371 | upstream cache, but with a fixed password. This is meant | |
1372 | to be used when the peer is in another administrative | |
1373 | domain, but it is still needed to identify each user. | |
1374 | The star can optionally be followed by some extra | |
1375 | information which is added to the username. This can | |
1376 | be used to identify this proxy to the peer, similar to | |
1377 | the login=username:password option above. | |
cccac0a2 | 1378 | |
41bd17a4 | 1379 | use 'connect-timeout=nn' to specify a peer |
1380 | specific connect timeout (also see the | |
1381 | peer_connect_timeout directive) | |
7f7db318 | 1382 | |
41bd17a4 | 1383 | use 'digest-url=url' to tell Squid to fetch the cache |
1384 | digest (if digests are enabled) for this host from | |
1385 | the specified URL rather than the Squid default | |
1386 | location. | |
cccac0a2 | 1387 | |
41bd17a4 | 1388 | use 'allow-miss' to disable Squid's use of only-if-cached |
1389 | when forwarding requests to siblings. This is primarily | |
1390 | useful when icp_hit_stale is used by the sibling. To | |
1391 | extensive use of this option may result in forwarding | |
1392 | loops, and you should avoid having two-way peerings | |
1393 | with this option. (for example to deny peer usage on | |
1394 | requests from peer by denying cache_peer_access if the | |
1395 | source is a peer) | |
cccac0a2 | 1396 | |
41bd17a4 | 1397 | use 'max-conn=n' to limit the amount of connections Squid |
1398 | may open to this peer. | |
cccac0a2 | 1399 | |
41bd17a4 | 1400 | use 'htcp' to send HTCP, instead of ICP, queries |
1401 | to the neighbor. You probably also want to | |
1402 | set the "icp port" to 4827 instead of 3130. | |
cccac0a2 | 1403 | |
41bd17a4 | 1404 | use 'htcp-oldsquid' to send HTCP to old Squid versions |
cccac0a2 | 1405 | |
41bd17a4 | 1406 | 'originserver' causes this parent peer to be contacted as |
1407 | a origin server. Meant to be used in accelerator setups. | |
cccac0a2 | 1408 | |
41bd17a4 | 1409 | use 'name=xxx' if you have multiple peers on the same |
1410 | host but different ports. This name can be used to | |
1411 | differentiate the peers in cache_peer_access and similar | |
1412 | directives. | |
cccac0a2 | 1413 | |
41bd17a4 | 1414 | use 'forceddomain=name' to forcibly set the Host header |
1415 | of requests forwarded to this peer. Useful in accelerator | |
1416 | setups where the server (peer) expects a certain domain | |
1417 | name and using redirectors to feed this domain name | |
1418 | is not feasible. | |
64658378 | 1419 | |
41bd17a4 | 1420 | use 'ssl' to indicate connections to this peer should |
1421 | be SSL/TLS encrypted. | |
cccac0a2 | 1422 | |
41bd17a4 | 1423 | use 'sslcert=/path/to/ssl/certificate' to specify a client |
1424 | SSL certificate to use when connecting to this peer. | |
4c9fa5d5 | 1425 | |
41bd17a4 | 1426 | use 'sslkey=/path/to/ssl/key' to specify the private SSL |
1427 | key corresponding to sslcert above. If 'sslkey' is not | |
1428 | specified 'sslcert' is assumed to reference a | |
1429 | combined file containing both the certificate and the key. | |
4c9fa5d5 | 1430 | |
41bd17a4 | 1431 | use sslversion=1|2|3|4 to specify the SSL version to use |
1432 | when connecting to this peer | |
1433 | 1 = automatic (default) | |
1434 | 2 = SSL v2 only | |
1435 | 3 = SSL v3 only | |
1436 | 4 = TLS v1 only | |
cccac0a2 | 1437 | |
41bd17a4 | 1438 | use sslcipher=... to specify the list of valid SSL ciphers |
1439 | to use when connecting to this peer. | |
cccac0a2 | 1440 | |
41bd17a4 | 1441 | use ssloptions=... to specify various SSL engine options: |
1442 | NO_SSLv2 Disallow the use of SSLv2 | |
1443 | NO_SSLv3 Disallow the use of SSLv3 | |
1444 | NO_TLSv1 Disallow the use of TLSv1 | |

cccac0a2 | 1451 | |
41bd17a4 | 1452 | use sslcapath=... to specify a directory containing |

cccac0a2 | 1470 | |
41bd17a4 | 1471 | use ssldomain= to specify the peer name as advertised |
1472 | in it's certificate. Used for verifying the correctness | |
1473 | of the received peer certificate. If not specified the | |
1474 | peer hostname will be used. | |
cccac0a2 | 1475 | |
41bd17a4 | 1476 | use front-end-https to enable the "Front-End-Https: On" |
1477 | header needed when using Squid as a SSL frontend in front | |
1478 | of Microsoft OWA. See MS KB document Q307347 for details | |
1479 | on this header. If set to auto the header will | |
1480 | only be added if the request is forwarded as a https:// | |
1481 | URL. | |

1557 | This controls how long Squid waits to declare a peer cache | |
1558 | as "dead." If there are no ICP replies received in this | |
1559 | amount of time, Squid will declare the peer dead and not | |
1560 | expect to receive any further ICP replies. However, it | |
1561 | continues to send ICP queries, and will mark the peer as | |
1562 | alive upon receipt of the first subsequent ICP reply. | |
699acd19 | 1563 | |
41bd17a4 | 1564 | This timeout also affects when Squid expects to receive ICP |
1565 | replies from peers. If more than 'dead_peer' seconds have | |
1566 | passed since the last ICP reply was received, Squid will not | |
1567 | expect to receive an ICP reply on the next query. Thus, if | |
1568 | your time between requests is greater than this timeout, you | |

1601 | IT ONLY PLACES A LIMIT ON HOW MUCH ADDITIONAL MEMORY SQUID WILL | |

1603 | THINGS AS WELL. SEE THE SQUID FAQ SECTION 8 FOR DETAILS. | |
1604 | ||
1605 | 'cache_mem' specifies the ideal amount of memory to be used | |
1606 | for: | |
1607 | * In-Transit objects | |
1608 | * Hot Objects | |
1609 | * Negative-Cached objects | |
1610 | ||
1611 | Data for these objects are stored in 4 KB blocks. This | |
1612 | parameter specifies the ideal upper limit on the total size of | |
1613 | 4 KB blocks allocated. In-Transit objects take the highest | |
1614 | priority. | |
1615 | ||
1616 | In-transit objects have priority over the others. When | |
1617 | additional space is needed for incoming data, negative-cached | |
1618 | and hot objects will be released. In other words, the | |
1619 | negative-cached and hot objects will fill up any unused space | |
1620 | not needed for in-transit objects. | |
1621 | ||
1622 | If circumstances require, this limit will be exceeded. | |
1623 | Specifically, if your incoming request rate requires more than | |
1624 | 'cache_mem' of memory to hold in-transit objects, Squid will | |
1625 | exceed this limit to satisfy the new requests. When the load | |
1626 | decreases, blocks will be freed until the high-water mark is | |
1627 | reached. Thereafter, blocks will be used to store hot | |

7f7db318 | 1673 | |
41bd17a4 | 1674 | The LRU policies keeps recently referenced objects. |
0976f8db | 1675 | |
41bd17a4 | 1676 | The heap GDSF policy optimizes object hit rate by keeping smaller |
1677 | popular objects in cache so it has a better chance of getting a | |
1678 | hit. It achieves a lower byte hit rate than LFUDA though since | |
1679 | it evicts larger (possibly popular) objects. | |
0976f8db | 1680 | |
41bd17a4 | 1681 | The heap LFUDA policy keeps popular objects in cache regardless of |
1682 | their size and thus optimizes byte hit rate at the expense of | |
1683 | hit rate since one large, popular object will prevent many | |
1684 | smaller, slightly less popular objects from being cached. | |
0976f8db | 1685 | |
41bd17a4 | 1686 | Both policies utilize a dynamic aging mechanism that prevents |
1687 | cache pollution that can otherwise occur with frequency-based | |
1688 | replacement policies. | |
7d90757b | 1689 | |
41bd17a4 | 1690 | NOTE: if using the LFUDA replacement policy you should increase |
1691 | the value of maximum_object_size above its default of 4096 KB to | |

0976f8db | 1708 | |
41bd17a4 | 1709 | You can specify multiple cache_dir lines to spread the |
1710 | cache among different disk partitions. | |
0976f8db | 1711 | |
41bd17a4 | 1712 | Type specifies the kind of storage system to use. Only "ufs" |
1713 | is built by default. To enable any of the other storage systems | |
1714 | see the --enable-storeio configure option. | |
0976f8db | 1715 | |
41bd17a4 | 1716 | 'Directory' is a top-level directory where cache swap |
1717 | files will be stored. If you want to use an entire disk | |
1718 | for caching, this can be the mount-point directory. | |
1719 | The directory must exist and be writable by the Squid | |
1720 | process. Squid will NOT create this directory for you. | |
0976f8db | 1721 | |
41bd17a4 | 1722 | The ufs store type: |
0976f8db | 1723 | |
41bd17a4 | 1724 | "ufs" is the old well-known Squid storage format that has always |
1725 | been there. | |
0976f8db | 1726 | |
41bd17a4 | 1727 | cache_dir ufs Directory-Name Mbytes L1 L2 [options] |
0976f8db | 1728 | |
41bd17a4 | 1729 | 'Mbytes' is the amount of disk space (MB) to use under this |
1730 | directory. The default is 100 MB. Change this to suit your | |
1731 | configuration. Do NOT put the size of your disk drive here. | |
1732 | Instead, if you want Squid to use the entire disk drive, | |
1733 | subtract 20% and use that value. | |
0976f8db | 1734 | |
41bd17a4 | 1735 | 'Level-1' is the number of first-level subdirectories which |
1736 | will be created under the 'Directory'. The default is 16. | |
0976f8db | 1737 | |
41bd17a4 | 1738 | 'Level-2' is the number of second-level subdirectories which |
1739 | will be created under each first-level directory. The default | |
1740 | is 256. | |
0976f8db | 1741 | |
41bd17a4 | 1742 | The aufs store type: |
7f7db318 | 1743 | |
41bd17a4 | 1744 | "aufs" uses the same storage format as "ufs", utilizing |
1745 | POSIX-threads to avoid blocking the main Squid process on | |
1746 | disk-I/O. This was formerly known in Squid as async-io. | |
38f9c547 | 1747 | |

41bd17a4 | 1750 | see argument descriptions under ufs above |
38f9c547 | 1751 | |
41bd17a4 | 1752 | The diskd store type: |
38f9c547 | 1753 | |
41bd17a4 | 1754 | "diskd" uses the same storage format as "ufs", utilizing a |
1755 | separate process to avoid blocking the main Squid process on | |
1756 | disk-I/O. | |

41bd17a4 | 1758 | cache_dir diskd Directory-Name Mbytes L1 L2 [options] [Q1=n] [Q2=n] |
0976f8db | 1759 | |
41bd17a4 | 1760 | see argument descriptions under ufs above |
0976f8db | 1761 | |
41bd17a4 | 1762 | Q1 specifies the number of unacknowledged I/O requests when Squid |
1763 | stops opening new files. If this many messages are in the queues, | |
1764 | Squid won't open new files. Default is 64 | |
0976f8db | 1765 | |
41bd17a4 | 1766 | Q2 specifies the number of unacknowledged messages when Squid |
1767 | starts blocking. If this many messages are in the queues, | |
1768 | Squid blocks until it receives some replies. Default is 72 | |
0976f8db | 1769 | |
41bd17a4 | 1770 | When Q1 < Q2 (the default), the cache directory is optimized |
1771 | for lower response time at the expense of a decrease in hit | |
1772 | ratio. If Q1 > Q2, the cache directory is optimized for | |
1773 | higher hit ratio at the expense of an increase in response | |
1774 | time. | |
0976f8db | 1775 | |
41bd17a4 | 1776 | The coss store type: |
0976f8db | 1777 | |
41bd17a4 | 1778 | block-size=n defines the "block size" for COSS cache_dir's. |
1779 | Squid uses file numbers as block numbers. Since file numbers | |
1780 | are limited to 24 bits, the block size determines the maximum | |
1781 | size of the COSS partition. The default is 512 bytes, which | |
1782 | leads to a maximum cache_dir size of 512<<24, or 8 GB. Note | |
1783 | you should not change the coss block size after Squid | |
1784 | has written some objects to the cache_dir. | |
0976f8db | 1785 | |
41bd17a4 | 1786 | The coss file store has changed from 2.5. Now it uses a file |
1787 | called 'stripe' in the directory names in the config - and | |
1788 | this will be created by squid -z. | |
0976f8db | 1789 | |
41bd17a4 | 1790 | The null store type: |
0976f8db | 1791 | |
41bd17a4 | 1792 | no options are allowed or required |
0976f8db | 1793 | |
41bd17a4 | 1794 | Common options: |
0976f8db | 1795 | |
41bd17a4 | 1796 | no-store, no new objects should be stored to this cache_dir |
0976f8db | 1797 | |
41bd17a4 | 1798 | max-size=n, refers to the max object size this storedir supports. |
1799 | It is used to initially choose the storedir to dump the object. | |
1800 | Note: To make optimal use of the max-size limits you should order | |
1801 | the cache_dir lines with the smallest max-size value first and the | |
1802 | ones with no max-size specification last. | |
0976f8db | 1803 | |
41bd17a4 | 1804 | Note for coss, max-size must be less than COSS_MEMBUF_SZ, |
1805 | which can be changed with the --with-coss-membuf-size=N configure | |
1806 | option. | |

1874 | low-water mark and attempts to maintain utilization near the | |
1875 | low-water mark. As swap utilization gets close to high-water | |

2071 | disable the file name rotation, but the logfiles are still closed | |
2072 | and re-opened. This will enable you to rename the logfiles | |

41bd17a4 | 2075 | Note, the 'squid -k rotate' command normally sends a USR1 |
2076 | signal to the running squid process. In certain situations | |
2077 | (e.g. on Linux with Async I/O), USR1 is used for other | |
2078 | purposes, so -k rotate uses another signal. It is best to get | |
2079 | in the habit of using 'squid -k rotate' instead of 'kill -USR1 | |
2080 | <pid>'. | |

2785 | Microsoft Internet Explorer up until version 5.5 Service | |
2786 | Pack 1 has an issue with transparent proxies, wherein it | |
2787 | is impossible to force a refresh. Turning this on provides | |
2788 | a partial fix to the problem, by causing all IMS-REFRESH | |
2789 | requests from older IE versions to check the origin server | |
2790 | for fresh content. This reduces hit ratio by some amount | |
2791 | (~10% in my experience), but allows users to actually get | |
2792 | fresh content when they want it. Note because Squid | |
2793 | cannot tell if the user is using 5.5 or 5.5SP1, the behavior | |
2794 | of 5.5 is unchanged from old versions of Squid (i.e. a | |
2795 | forced refresh is impossible). Newer versions of IE will, | |
2796 | hopefully, continue to have the new behavior and will be | |
2797 | handled based on that assumption. This option defaults to | |
2798 | the old Squid behavior, which is better for hit ratios but | |

3109 | properly shutting down (either because of a network failure or | |
3110 | because of a poor client implementation). The default is one | |

3114 | client would ever need to be connected to your cache. You | |

3399 | This represents the number of delay pools to be used. For example, | |

3410 | This defines the class of each delay pool. There must be exactly one | |
3411 | delay_class line for each delay pool. For example, to define two | |
3412 | delay pools, one of class 2 and one of class 3, the settings above | |
3413 | and here would be: | |
3414 | ||
3415 | Example: | |
3416 | delay_pools 4 # 4 delay pools | |
3417 | delay_class 1 2 # pool 1 is a class 2 pool | |
3418 | delay_class 2 3 # pool 2 is a class 3 pool | |
3419 | delay_class 3 4 # pool 3 is a class 4 pool | |
3420 | delay_class 4 5 # pool 4 is a class 5 pool | |
3421 | ||
3422 | The delay pool classes are: | |
3423 | ||
3424 | class 1 Everything is limited by a single aggregate | |
3425 | bucket. | |
3426 | ||
3427 | class 2 Everything is limited by a single aggregate | |
3428 | bucket as well as an "individual" bucket chosen | |
3429 | from bits 25 through 32 of the IP address. | |
3430 | ||
3431 | class 3 Everything is limited by a single aggregate | |
3432 | bucket as well as a "network" bucket chosen | |
3433 | from bits 17 through 24 of the IP address and a | |
3434 | "individual" bucket chosen from bits 17 through | |
3435 | 32 of the IP address. | |
3436 | ||
3437 | class 4 Everything in a class 3 delay pool, with an | |
3438 | additional limit on a per user basis. This | |
3439 | only takes effect if the username is established | |
3440 | in advance - by forcing authentication in your | |
3441 | http_access rules. | |
3442 | ||
3443 | class 5 Requests are grouped according their tag (see | |
3444 | external_acl's tag= reply). | |
3445 | ||
3446 | NOTE: If an IP address is a.b.c.d | |
3447 | -> bits 25 through 32 are "d" | |
3448 | -> bits 17 through 24 are "c" | |
3449 | -> bits 17 through 32 are "c * 256 + d" | |

3458 | This is used to determine which delay pool a request falls into. | |
3459 | ||
3460 | delay_access is sorted per pool and the matching starts with pool 1, | |
3461 | then pool 2, ..., and finally pool N. The first delay pool where the | |
3462 | request is allowed is selected for the request. If it does not allow | |
3463 | the request to any pool then the request is not delayed (default). | |
3464 | ||
3465 | For example, if you want some_big_clients in delay | |
3466 | pool 1 and lotsa_little_clients in delay pool 2: | |
3467 | ||
3468 | Example: | |
3469 | delay_access 1 allow some_big_clients | |
3470 | delay_access 1 deny all | |
3471 | delay_access 2 allow lotsa_little_clients | |

3480 | LOC: Config.Delay | |
3481 | DOC_START | |
3482 | This defines the parameters for a delay pool. Each delay pool has | |
3483 | a number of "buckets" associated with it, as explained in the | |
3484 | description of delay_class. For a class 1 delay pool, the syntax is: | |
3485 | ||
3486 | delay_parameters pool aggregate | |
3487 | ||
3488 | For a class 2 delay pool: | |
3489 | ||
3490 | delay_parameters pool aggregate individual | |
3491 | ||
3492 | For a class 3 delay pool: | |
3493 | ||
3494 | delay_parameters pool aggregate network individual | |
3495 | ||
3496 | For a class 4 delay pool: | |
3497 | ||
3498 | delay_parameters pool aggregate network individual user | |
3499 | ||
3500 | For a class 5 delay pool: | |
3501 | ||
3502 | delay_parameters pool tag | |
3503 | ||
3504 | The variables here are: | |
3505 | ||
3506 | pool a pool number - ie, a number between 1 and the | |
3507 | number specified in delay_pools as used in | |
3508 | delay_class lines. | |
3509 | ||
3510 | aggregate the "delay parameters" for the aggregate bucket | |
3511 | (class 1, 2, 3). | |
3512 | ||
3513 | individual the "delay parameters" for the individual | |
3514 | buckets (class 2, 3). | |
3515 | ||
3516 | network the "delay parameters" for the network buckets | |
3517 | (class 3). | |
3518 | ||
3519 | user the delay parameters for the user buckets | |
3520 | (class 4). | |
3521 | ||
3522 | tag the delay parameters for the tag buckets | |
3523 | (class 5). | |
3524 | ||
3525 | A pair of delay parameters is written restore/maximum, where restore is | |
3526 | the number of bytes (not bits - modem and network speeds are usually | |
3527 | quoted in bits) per second placed into the bucket, and maximum is the | |
3528 | maximum number of bytes which can be in the bucket at any time. | |
3529 | ||
3530 | For example, if delay pool number 1 is a class 2 delay pool as in the | |
3531 | above example, and is being used to strictly limit each host to 64kbps | |
3532 | (plus overheads), with no overall limit, the line is: | |
3533 | ||
3534 | delay_parameters 1 -1/-1 8000/8000 | |
3535 | ||
3536 | Note that the figure -1 is used to represent "unlimited". | |
3537 | ||
3538 | And, if delay pool number 2 is a class 3 delay pool as in the above | |
3539 | example, and you want to limit it to a total of 256kbps (strict limit) | |
3540 | with each 8-bit network permitted 64kbps (strict limit) and each | |
3541 | individual host permitted 4800bps with a bucket maximum size of 64kb | |
3542 | to permit a decent web page to be downloaded at a decent speed | |
3543 | (if the network is not being limited due to overuse) but slow down | |
3544 | large downloads more significantly: | |
3545 | ||
3546 | delay_parameters 2 32000/32000 8000/8000 600/8000 | |
3547 | ||
3548 | There must be one delay_parameters line for each delay pool. | |
3549 | ||
3550 | Finally, for a class 4 delay pool as in the example - each user will | |
3551 | be limited to 128Kb no matter how many workstations they are logged into.: | |
3552 | ||
3553 | delay_parameters 4 32000/32000 8000/8000 600/64000 16000/16000 | |

4287 | /squid-internal-static/ no matter which host the URL is requesting | |
4288 | (default on setting), or if nothing special should be done for | |
4289 | such URLs (off setting). The purpose of this directive is to make | |
4290 | icons etc work better in complex cache hierarchies where it may | |
4291 | not always be possible for all corners in the cache mesh to reach | |
4292 | the server generating a directory listing. | |

4361 | Usage: deny_info err_page_name acl | |
4362 | or deny_info http://... acl | |
4363 | Example: deny_info ERR_CUSTOM_ACCESS_DENIED bad_guys | |
4364 | ||
4365 | This can be used to return a ERR_ page for requests which | |
4366 | do not pass the 'http_access' rules. Squid remembers the last | |
4367 | acl it evaluated in http_access, and if a 'deny_info' line exists | |
4368 | for that ACL Squid returns a corresponding error page. | |
4369 | ||
4370 | The acl is typically the last acl on the http_access deny line which | |
4371 | denied access. The exceptions to this rule are: | |
4372 | - When Squid needs to request authentication credentials. It's then | |
4373 | the first authentication related acl encountered | |
4374 | - When none of the http_access lines matches. It's then the last | |
4375 | acl processed on the last http_access line. | |
4376 | ||
4377 | You may use ERR_ pages that come with Squid or create your own pages | |
4378 | and put them into the configured errors/ directory. | |
4379 | ||
4380 | Alternatively you can specify an error URL. The browsers will | |
4381 | get redirected (302) to the specified URL. %s in the redirection | |
4382 | URL will be replaced by the requested URL. | |
4383 | ||
4384 | Alternatively you can tell Squid to reset the TCP connection | |
4385 | by specifying TCP_RESET. | |

e72a0ec0 | 4396 | DEFAULT: on |
4397 | DOC_START | |
5473c134 | 4398 | By default, Squid will send any non-hierarchical requests |
4399 | (matching hierarchy_stoplist or not cacheable request type) direct | |
4400 | to origin servers. | |
e72a0ec0 | 4401 | |
5473c134 | 4402 | If you set this to off, Squid will prefer to send these |
4403 | requests to parents. | |
0b0cfcf2 | 4404 | |
5473c134 | 4405 | Note that in most configurations, by turning this off you will only |
4406 | add latency to these request without any improvement in global hit | |
4407 | ratio. | |
0b0cfcf2 | 4408 | |
5473c134 | 4409 | If you are inside an firewall see never_direct instead of |
4410 | this directive. | |

8d6275c0 | 4416 | DEFAULT: off |
4417 | DOC_START | |
5473c134 | 4418 | Normally Squid tries to use parents for most requests. If you for some |
4419 | reason like it to first try going direct and only use a parent if | |
4420 | going direct fails set this to on. | |
0b0cfcf2 | 4421 | |
5473c134 | 4422 | By combining nonhierarchical_direct off and prefer_direct on you |
4423 | can set up Squid to use a parent as a backup path if going direct | |
4424 | fails. | |
4425 | ||
4426 | Note: If you want Squid to use parents for all requests see | |
4427 | the never_direct directive. prefer_direct only modifies how Squid | |
4428 | acts on cacheable requests. | |

5473c134 | 4436 | Usage: always_direct allow|deny [!]aclname ... |
0b0cfcf2 | 4437 | |
5473c134 | 4438 | Here you can use ACL elements to specify requests which should |
4439 | ALWAYS be forwarded by Squid to the origin servers without using | |
4440 | any peers. For example, to always directly forward requests for | |
4441 | local servers ignoring any parents or siblings you may have use | |
4442 | something like: | |
0b0cfcf2 | 4443 | |
5473c134 | 4444 | acl local-servers dstdomain my.domain.net |
4445 | always_direct allow local-servers | |
0b0cfcf2 | 4446 | |
5473c134 | 4447 | To always forward FTP requests directly, use |
f16fbc82 | 4448 | |
5473c134 | 4449 | acl FTP proto FTP |
4450 | always_direct allow FTP | |
cccac0a2 | 4451 | |
5473c134 | 4452 | NOTE: There is a similar, but opposite option named |
4453 | 'never_direct'. You need to be aware that "always_direct deny | |
4454 | foo" is NOT the same thing as "never_direct allow foo". You | |
4455 | may need to use a deny rule to exclude a more-specific case of | |
4456 | some other rule. Example: | |
8d6275c0 | 4457 | |
5473c134 | 4458 | acl local-external dstdomain external.foo.net |
4459 | acl local-servers dstdomain .foo.net | |
4460 | always_direct deny local-external | |
4461 | always_direct allow local-servers | |
8d6275c0 | 4462 | |
5473c134 | 4463 | NOTE: If your goal is to make the client forward the request |
4464 | directly to the origin server bypassing Squid then this needs | |
4465 | to be done in the client configuration. Squid configuration | |
4466 | can only tell Squid how Squid should fetch the object. | |
8d6275c0 | 4467 | |
5473c134 | 4468 | NOTE: This directive is not related to caching. The replies |
4469 | is cached as usual even if you use always_direct. To not cache | |
4470 | the replies see no_cache. | |
4471 | ||
4472 | This option replaces some v1.1 options such as local_domain | |
4473 | and local_ip. | |

4482 | ||
4483 | never_direct is the opposite of always_direct. Please read | |
4484 | the description for always_direct if you have not already. | |
4485 | ||
4486 | With 'never_direct' you can use ACL elements to specify | |
4487 | requests which should NEVER be forwarded directly to origin | |
4488 | servers. For example, to force the use of a proxy for all | |
4489 | requests, except those in your local domain use something like: | |
4490 | ||
4491 | acl local-servers dstdomain .foo.net | |
4492 | acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 | |
4493 | never_direct deny local-servers | |
4494 | never_direct allow all | |
4495 | ||
4496 | or if Squid is inside a firewall and there are local intranet | |
4497 | servers inside the firewall use something like: | |
4498 | ||
4499 | acl local-intranet dstdomain .foo.net | |
4500 | acl local-external dstdomain external.foo.net | |
4501 | always_direct deny local-external | |
4502 | always_direct allow local-intranet | |
4503 | never_direct allow all | |
4504 | ||
4505 | This option replaces some v1.1 options such as inside_firewall | |
4506 | and firewall_ip. | |

5473c134 | 5054 | If set to a non-zero value, Squid will keep at most the specified |
5055 | limit of allocated (but unused) memory in memory pools. All free() | |
5056 | requests that exceed this limit will be handled by your malloc | |
5057 | library. Squid does not pre-allocate any memory, just safe-keeps | |
5058 | objects that otherwise would be free()d. Thus, it is safe to set | |
5059 | memory_pools_limit to a reasonably high value even if your | |
5060 | configuration will use less memory. | |
ec1245f8 | 5061 | |
5473c134 | 5062 | If set to zero, Squid will keep all memory it can. That is, there |
5063 | will be no limit on the total amount of memory used for safe-keeping. | |

5068 | An overhead for maintaining memory pools is not taken into account | |
5069 | when the limit is checked. This overhead is close to four bytes per | |
5070 | object kept. However, pools may actually _save_ memory because of | |
