I found that Symantec LU has round robin DNS. And they can change DNS A

Isn't it better if Squid can bypass the domain name in squid.conf?
Is it possible?
Squid does many DNS things and has many controls for changing how it
does them.
Correct use of DNS in stateless HTTP should not be causing any issue
at all.
Is the RR-DNS causing you problems? if so what?
Amos,
I think Symantec LU issue is not related to HTTP/1.1 as Squid support
such version (need sometime to investigate).
But if the request redirected to Squid, Symatec LU always failed. The
fastest way is excluding LU request to Squid.
May be it is OT discussion about how-to put FQDN in IPTABLES script. We
need Squid to cache and monitor HTTP usage but Symantec LU is also need
to run.
Thx & Rgds,
Wong
Ah okay I think I understand you now.
No it's not possible to bypass squid with squid.conf settings. The
problem is that by the time the request gets to Squid its far too late
to not send it to squid.
Try "balance_on_multiple_ip off" to prevent Squid doing its own
round-robin of IPs and make it act more like a web client should.
