Hello Folks .

i have a problem with IPV6 when i moved to squid Squid Cache: Version
5.0.0-20190715-rd3527ec67.

in squid 3.5 when i put :
dns_v4_first off
i have all resolution of domains for ipv6 as 1st priority then ipv4 .

but …
when i have squid 5.x.x
seems this directive not effective bec i keep have all domains to be ipv4 1st .


Squid-5 has the remaining parts of Happy Eyeballs algorithm for DNS resolving which were missing from earlier Squid. IPs are used as soon as they are delivered, and both types of TCP connection are attempted in parallel - with first TCP connection type to open being used. That makes sorting the way that directive used to do no longer reliable.

The ideal setup is to have working ICMP and ICMPv6 to inform Squid quickly of connectivity issues so it can skip past any non-working server IPs.

Alternatively; to force IPv4 use first configure the DNS resolver used by Squid to send the IPs in your desired order, or reject AAAA queries. That will ensure software other than Squid uses your preferences too.
