And will it remain same in the response? Not sure. Can't find any host_ip in my sources. Which version are you looking at? But the destination server destination IP is not known until the request is forwarded, and then only if the request is forwarded directly and not via another proxy. Until then the destination is the requested host name. > port: is this the port from which the request originated? Source port > of the request? What will be the value in response from the server? port is the port number from parsing the requested URL. > my_addr: This seems like the ip on which squid is listening.

How do i know what was the destination port > of the request? proxy requests are sent to the proxy, not the destination server. HTTP requests are addressed by the requested URL not IP:PORT. The URL tells which host name and port the request is targeted at. Regards Henrik
