Hi I am using squid 2.5-10 stable as transparent cache. I have just started using refresh_pattern value to save more Bandwidth. I noticed my users are doing lot of windows update and antivirus update. My cache_mem value was 8 mb earlier which I increased to 32mb today. I made below configuration refresh_pattern -i exe$ 0 50% 999999 refresh_pattern -i zip$ 0 50% 999999 refresh_pattern -i tar\.gz$ 0 50% 999999 refresh_pattern -i tgz$ 0 50% 999999 refresh_pattern http://.*\.windowsupdate\.microsoft\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims refresh_pattern http://office\.microsoft\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims refresh_pattern http://windowsupdate\.microsoft\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims refresh_pattern http://w?xpsp[0-9]\.microsoft\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims refresh_pattern http://w2ksp[0-9]\.microsoft\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims refresh_pattern http://download\.microsoft\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims refresh_pattern http://download\.macromedia\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims refresh_pattern ftp://ftp\.nai\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims refresh_pattern http://ftp\.software\.ibm\.com/ 0 80% 20160 reload-into-ims refresh_pattern ^ftp: 1440 20% 10080 refresh_pattern ^gopher: 1440 0% 1440 refresh_pattern . 0 20% 4320 Below is my access.log .
