Unable to make Squid work as a transparent proxy (Squid 3.1.7, Linux Debian, WCCP2)

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

 



Hi all,

I have compiled and installed Squid 3.1.7 on a Linux 2.6.26 (Debian
5.0.5), and successfully tested it as a non-transparent proxy (i.e.
the proxy address:port is explicitly specified in the web browser).

Now I need to use it to do transparent proxying.  For this, I'm
following the example at
http://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/Intercept/CiscoAsaWccp2 .
The clients will be on subnet 10.11.1.0/24.  $ROUTER_IP and $SQUID_IP
are both on the subnet 10.8.0.0/16.

Squid has been compiled as follows:
configure options:  '--enable-linux-netfilter' '--enable-wccp'
'--prefix=/usr' '--localstatedir=/var' '--libexecdir=/lib/squid'
'--srcdir=.' '--datadir=/share/squid' '--sysconfdir=/etc/squid'
'CPPFLAGS=-I../libltdl' --with-squid=/root/squid-3.1.7
--enable-ltdl-convenience


======= Squid configuration: =======

File /etc/rc.local :

modprobe ip_gre
ip tunnel add wccp0 mode gre remote $ROUTER_IP local $SQUID_IP dev eth0
ifconfig wccp0 $SQUID_IP netmask 255.255.255.255 up
echo 0 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/wccp0/rp_filter
echo 0 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth0/rp_filter
echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i wccp0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT
--to-port 3128
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -j MASQUERADE


File /etc/squid/squid.conf : I am basically using the default config,
adding only the commands for transparent proxying:

acl manager proto cache_object
acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/32 ::1
acl to_localhost dst 127.0.0.0/8 0.0.0.0/32 ::1
acl localnet src 10.0.0.0/8
acl localnet src fc00::/7
acl localnet src fe80::/10

acl Safe_ports port 21          # ftp

acl Safe_ports port 777         # multiling http
acl CONNECT method CONNECT

# Transparent proxying

wccp2_router $ROUTER_IP
wccp2_forwarding_method gre
wccp2_return_method gre
wccp2_service standard 0

# Only allow cachemgr access from localhost
http_access allow manager localhost
http_access deny manager

# Deny requests to certain unsafe ports
http_access deny !Safe_ports

# Deny CONNECT to other than secure SSL ports
http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports

# We strongly recommend the following be uncommented to protect innocent
# web applications running on the proxy server who think the only
# one who can access services on "localhost" is a local user
http_access deny to_localhost

# Example rule allowing access from your local networks.
# Adapt localnet in the ACL section to list your (internal) IP networks
# from where browsing should be allowed
http_access allow localnet
http_access allow localhost

# And finally deny all other access to this proxy
http_access deny all

# We recommend you to use at least the following line.
hierarchy_stoplist cgi-bin ?

# Uncomment and adjust the following to add a disk cache directory.
cache_dir ufs /var/cache 50000 16 256

# Leave coredumps in the first cache dir
coredump_dir /var/cache

# Add any of your own refresh_pattern entries above these.
refresh_pattern ^ftp:           1440    20%     10080
refresh_pattern ^gopher:        1440    0%      1440
refresh_pattern -i (/cgi-bin/|\?) 0     0%      0
refresh_pattern .               0       20%     4320

======= Configuration of the router, a Cisco ASA 5520 firewall: =======

access-list wccp_redirect extended deny ip host $SQUID_IP any
access-list wccp_redirect extended permit tcp 10.11.1.0 255.255.255.0 any eq www
wccp web-cache redirect-list wccp_redirect
wccp interface inside web-cache redirect in

======= =======


This does not work.  The browser gives an error "Unable to connect to
remote server" after a timeout.

Here is is the output of "tcpdump -vvnn -i eth0 port 2048" on the Squid machine:
15:05:01.279896 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 22913, offset 0, flags [none],
proto UDP (17), length 172) $SQUID_IP.2048 > $ROUTER_IP.2048: UDP,
length 144
15:05:01.280090 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 255, id 5011, offset 0, flags [none],
proto UDP (17), length 168) $ROUTER_IP.2048 > $SQUID_IP.2048: UDP,
length 140
15:05:11.279893 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 22914, offset 0, flags [none],
proto UDP (17), length 172) $SQUID_IP.2048 > $ROUTER_IP.2048: UDP,
length 144
15:05:11.280083 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 255, id 20123, offset 0, flags
[none], proto UDP (17), length 168) $ROUTER_IP.2048 > $SQUID_IP.2048:
UDP, length 140

This is what I see on the Cisco ASA when I turn debugging on with
"debug ip wccp packets":
WCCP-PKT:S00: Received valid Here_I_Am packet from $SQUID_IP w/rcv_id 000001ED
WCCP-PKT:S00: Sending I_See_You packet to $SQUID_IP w/ rcv_id 000001EE
WCCP-PKT:S00: Received valid Here_I_Am packet from $SQUID_IP w/rcv_id 000001EE
WCCP-PKT:S00: Sending I_See_You packet to $SQUID_IP w/ rcv_id 000001EF


Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance,


L.
