Ah - this is what I was "looking" for....makes me wonder...i might change
my setup :)
So tcp_outgoing_address supports ACL's tagged to it, so you could have
something like....
acl morning time 06:00-11:59
acl afternoon time 12:00-18:00
acl night time 18:00-06:00
tcp_outgoing_address 1.2.3.4 morning # IP used in the morning
tcp_outgoing_address 1.2.3.4 afternoon # IP used in the afternoon
tcp_outgoing_address 1.2.3.4 night # IP used in the night
Cheers,
Pieter

Hello,
Iam wanting to pass the option of tcp_outgoing_address when I run the
command to refresh or reload the config file. This so that every hour
I can rorate with a cron the IP that squid uses to browse the
internet.
Is this possible? Or is there a better way then to create dozens of
config files with the only difference being the IP?
I would set up a included squid.conf snippet with 24
tcp_outgoing_address settings (one per hour, selected by acl) and update
this file nightly to assign a new set of IP addresses for the next day.
generate_random_outgoing.sh
#!/bin/sh
top=`dirname $0`
HOUR=0
cat $1 | sort -R | while [ $HOUR -lt 24 ] && read ip; do
printf "acl hour_%d time %02d:00-%02d:59\n" $HOUR $HOUR $HOUR
printf "tcp_outgoing_address %s hour_%d\n" $ip $HOUR
HOUR=`expr $HOUR + 1`
done
Usage:
generate_random_outgoing.sh /path/to/file_with_ipaddresses.txt >/path/to/etc/squid/random_outgoing.conf
squid -k reconfigure
and in squid.conf
include /path/to/etc/squid/random_outgoing.conf
Regards
Henrik
