delay pool question: how about a timeout variable?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi there

We are starting to use delay_pool to limit multimedia downloads (stop them swallowing our links). We've set just two pools (tracked per IP), a default (no limits) and a "multimedia" pool set at 300M and then throttle down to 1Kbyte/sec >:-)

Seems to work well - but there's no indication of how long an IP would end up "blacklisted" if it occurred. At the moment we're restarting Squid every Sunday and just stating users get 300M per week.

Is there any other way to "reset" delay_pools beyond a restart? How about a timeout variable? Setting it to 150M per day is sort of what we're really after - but we don't want daily "outages" just to reset the stats...

Thanks, this is with squid-2.6STABLE17 under CentOS
