Re: Squid going through another forward proxy

Ah, I think I have a typo in my question.  Originally, I mentioned the following:

> the logic of figuring out where to go to lies in (C).

What I actually meant is "the logic that figuring out where to go lies in (B)" (not C).

Hi Amos,

Thanks for your reply.  Let's say I have the following cache_peer lines in (B), and the address for (C) is "forward-proxy.example.com:3128".

cache_peer    origin-x.example.com    parent 443 0 no-query originserver ssl
cache_peer    origin-y.example.com    parent 443 0 no-query originserver ssl
cache_peer    origin-z.example.com    parent 443 0 no-query originserver ssl

What would be the syntax to configure (B) to use "forward-proxy.example.com:3128" (C) as the forward proxy to the origin servers (D) ?

Thanks again,
Hector

Nothing weird about that at all. It is a perfectly normal CDN proxy
chain. The only potentially tricky bit will be getting the domain
owner to add your reverse-proxy IP address to the domain.

Forward/reverse are *input* modes, indicating the HTTP syntax expected
and resulting behaviour. Any type of proxy can be configured with a
cache_peer for *output*.

Only the interception proxy have problems with cache_peer sometimes,
because their very existence is a violation of the protocol.
