It is not clear what you mean by "connectivity is through", "channel is active", and "heartbeat is exchanged". You may want to describe what you need in higher-level terms specific to your problem domain. Please note that Squid peers do not normally exchange HTTP messages unless there is a client request to be forwarded. There are various optional features (e.g., cache_peer standby=N) that may create peer traffic in the absence of requests, but it is not yet clear whether any of those features are applicable to your use case. If you just want to know whether there is at least one TCP connection between two Squid instances, then you can use netstat or a similar tool to find all connections to/from relevant addresses (and their state). If you want to monitor the current peer state, I believe there is a cache manager page for that, but that will only give you information about one Squid's opinion, not both.
