Hi, apologies if this has been answered already. Does anyone know what Squid does when a request is made that resolves to multiple IPs a.k.a round-robin DNS? (I'm using 2.5 stable 9). For example MS IE will take all the addresses returned from the resolver and try each in turn until it makes a successful connection, and seems to do this per-request e.g. if one host goes down it will use one of the other IPs. Does Squid behave in a similar way? Are there any configuration options that affect this behaviour? Also, does anyone have information about whether other HTTP proxies handle round-robin DNS the same way?
See the balance_on_multiple_ip directive in squid.conf.
