Hey, what's a lowly employee like > me to do? :-( Don't you just hate management like that? If your manager knows that Squid will do it, I'd suggest you get him to configure it and then explain to you what he did to get it to work! As I see it you have several options: 1. Put squid in-line, as an intercepting proxy (con: when it goes down you lose everything). 2. Use WCCP if you have a WCCP capable router. 3. Use a mirrored port and software like packit. 4. Get the specialist in to prove you right.
