Hi!
We have 300 users with 100(200 Full Dublex)Mb connection to our LAN
with has 2(4 Full Dublex)Gigabit
backbone.
We plan to make Transparent Proxy server with Gigabit connection to
our LAN.
We plan to make the separation of port 80 traffic and other traffic
with own Linux router that sends the 80
port traffic to proxy server running Linux(maybe freeBSD).
Our wan connection is 100(200 Full Dublex)Mbit.

We have tree questions
1) What are the Hardware requirments of the caching proxy server
running squid. What do you recomend? Is
hardware raid with sata good enough? Dual core any good? Does the
menory system benefit on dual chanel?
2) Is it a good way to do the transparensy routing of port 80 with
another linux server than where squid is
running? Is this good way to do this? Any problems doing it this way?
Can the proxy server then directly
connect to internet or do have to backroute it to the router that made
the separation? Can you recomend any
howtos how this transparenty is done with diffrend server.
3) Does any of you know does Linux support D-Link DGS-3308TG's
Trunking, also known as link aggregation to
combine two gigabit connections as one? The switch does not seems to
support 802.3ad.
