Hello Amos, Thanks for your reply. As you suggested i will use ICP or HTCP. Is it necessary to use round-robin in sibling ? Based on the porxy1 config, If a client in 172.16.1.0/24 range makes a request and the requested object is not found in any of sibling servers, In the case the request will be forwarded via parent peer or as a direct request? proxy1 configuration: client range: 172.16.1.0/24 and 10.0.0.0/8 cache_peer proxy2 sibling 3128 3130 proxy-only round-robin cache_peer proxy3 sibling 3128 3130 proxy-only round-robin cache_peer proxy4 sibling 3128 3130 proxy-only round-robin cache_peer proxy5 sibling 3128 3130 proxy-only round-robin cache_peer example.com parent 3128 7 no-query no-digest default name=filter acl peer src 172.16.1.0/24 cache_peer_access filter allow peer Thanks, Senthil On 20/05/11 00:27, senthil kumar wrote: > Hello All, > > We have 5 squid servers and each squid server is configured to send > requests from certain clients to cache_peer( cache_peer is a filter) > and rest of the request passes as direct requests.

Please share your views. > No it will not. You used "no-query" which disables ICP (Internet Cache Protocol) sharing of information. I also recommend you experiment with HTCP.
