There was no clear and to the > point instructions on how to order those elements and correctly use them. https://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/SquidAcl "An access list rule consists of an allow or deny keyword, followed by a list of ACL element names. An access list consists of one or more access list rules. Access list rules are checked in the order they are written. List searching terminates as soon as one of the rules is a match. If a rule has multiple ACL elements, it uses AND logic. In other words, all ACL elements of the rule must be a match in order for the rule to be a match." "To summarize the ACL logics can be described as: (note: AND/OR below is just for illustration, not part of the syntax) http_access allow|deny acl AND acl AND ... OR http_access allow|deny acl AND acl AND ... OR ..." I thought that makes things quite clear. https://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/SquidAcl#ACL_elements has a comprehensive list of the things you can check for in ACLs.
