Problem #1: "always_direct allow" prohibits any cache_peer being used by that request (by requiring that DIRECT be used, mandatory). Remove that and some of the journal traffic will start going to the peer. > And this is an extract of the log: > > [Thu Jun 8 09:47:30 2017].094 5079 172.18.2.45 TCP_TUNNEL/200 333 CONNECT idp.fecyt.es:443 - HIER_DIRECT/185.79.129.106 - > [Thu Jun 8 09:47:30 2017].094 5079 172.18.2.45 TCP_TUNNEL/200 331 CONNECT idp.fecyt.es:443 - HIER_DIRECT/185.79.129.106 - > [Thu Jun 8 09:47:30 2017].120 5106 172.18.2.45 TCP_TUNNEL/200 331 CONNECT idp.fecyt.es:443 - HIER_DIRECT/185.79.129.106 - > [Thu Jun 8 09:47:30 2017].144 5130 172.18.2.45 TCP_TUNNEL/200 332 CONNECT idp.fecyt.es:443 - HIER_DIRECT/185.79.129.106 - > [Thu Jun 8 09:47:30 2017].147 5133 172.18.2.45 TCP_TUNNEL/200 333 CONNECT idp.fecyt.es:443 - HIER_DIRECT/185.79.129.106 - > [Thu Jun 8 09:47:30 2017].374 6567 172.18.2.45 TCP_TUNNEL/200 108115 CONNECT idp.fecyt.es:443 - HIER_DIRECT/185.79.129.106 - CONNECT and a few other things are normally sent DIRECT because that is way faster than doing another hop. To make those prefer going through the peer add this line: nonhierarchical_direct off And if that is not enough, you can add "never_direct allow journals" to forbid DIRECT being used. They will then fail completely if the peer is not used for any reason. > As you can see, always is going direct, but when going to idp.fecyt.es should be going through the peer, as the file UPF_LIST.txt has: > > https://idp.fecyt.es > https://idp.fecyt.es/ > https://idp.fecyt.es/* Your squid.conf said these were being loaded into a dstdomain ACL.
