Amos, Thanks for your reply. I tried squid2.6 and it works as per requirement . Squid will stop sending request to origin if origin returns http status code is other than 2xx. cache_peer 10.0.0.175 parent 80 0 no-query originserver round-robin monitorurl=/healthcheck.gif monitorinterval=1 Not sure how difficult it is to port it to squid3 as it is already supported in squid2.6. We will take a look at code and see if we could port it to squid3.
