I need the squid instance to query simultaneously to other siblings to avoid
duplications.
Squid2head
#cache_peer cache00 multicast 90 30 no-tproxy use-storeurl
multicast-siblings
cache_peer cache01 multicast 91 31 no-tproxy use-storeurl multicast-siblings
cache_peer cache02 multicast 92 32 no-tproxy use-storeurl multicast-siblings
cache_peer cache03 multicast 93 33 no-tproxy use-storeurl multicast-siblings
I'm not very familiar with the multicast side of things. But this config
seems a bit weird. Here is what little I understand about it:
port 3x are configured to send ICP requests *to* each peer. But these
are marked as multicast, which means the ICP is sent to the group
address instead of the individual peers.
I think all peers would need to be listening on the same icp_port to get
the multicast ICP request, which is not possible in multi-instance.
Also,
* "no-tproxy" is a Squid-3.1 option. Not available in any squid-2.
* what is "use-storeurl" about? it is not an option in any Squid
version at all.
#cache_peer_access cache00 allow all
cache_peer_access cache01 allow all
cache_peer_access cache02 allow all
cache_peer_access cache03 allow all
all instances has
mcast_groups 127.0.0.1
is there anything I missed? Or too much?
Maybe something built into multicast and how it works. But I'm almost as
much in the dark there as you. So good luck, and I'd like to hear how
this turns out :)
With this setup is there possibilities the object may loop?
I don't think so. The sibling and multicast relationships both goes some
way to resolve that. With a combined coverage greater than the individual.
You could ensure that "via on" is configured anyway. It will make any
loops that do happen highly visible.

Some more description of your particular problem so we can answer would
be good. Proxies peering with hosts/DNS entries to connect them
describes the Internet.
I assume you mean 2 Squid instances running on the same machine. Linked
as siblings to share objects. Correct?
Yap bec. Last time I've try (4 instances) it didn't work when using
127.0.0.1 so I named it in host file
Ah. k. That is what the name=* option is for. To avoid needing the hosts
file as well.
Some things to be aware of in squid-2.7 and squid-3.x:
* the default value of name= is the peer hostname/IP found as first
entry on the cache_peer line
* name= values must be unique in one loaded config
* the cache_peer_access and cache_peer_domain directives refer to the
name= value as their first parameter
With that understood, no additional configuration outside of squid.conf
is needed.
