The acl for the url must be of type url_regex, or something else:

acl allowedurl url_regex "url.txt"


This line tells Squid to load a file full of regex patterns. Nothing more.


The http_access line is the list of rules that determines when those loaded values are tested against a URL, and what happens when the URL matches (or not) any of the patterns.

Hi Team

Could you please let me know how to define an acl so that a specific
set of IPs can access alone a specific set of URLs.


Have you read the docs on how Squid does access control?

<https://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/SquidAcl#The_Basics:_How_the_parts_fit_together>

The example config you showed indicates a lack of understanding the syntax. That understanding is key to these things actually working the way you want.


Lets look at your stated requirements:

>  define an acl

acl okay_urls url_regex "/etc/squid/url.txt"


> a specific set of IPs can access alone a specific set of URLs.

That sentence is an access policy. It has three parts:

  1) "set of IPs"

I have assumed from the "can access" words that you mean client IPs. Which in networking are the TCP src-IP value.

So ...

   acl set_of_IPs src 192.0.2.1 192.0.2.45 192.0.2.156

  2) "set of URLs"

So ...

    acl set_of_urls url_regex "/etc/squid/url.txt"


  3) "can access alone"

I assume that means you want these IPs to access the URLs. But no others to be able to access those same URLs.

So ...
  # permit set_of_ips
  http_access allow set_of_ips set_of_urls
  http_access deny set_of_urls

The most important word there is "previously".

This is where *you* understanding how Squid access controls fit together matters *a lot*.

The first http_access line that matches entirely will _end_ processing of the 'http_access' sequence. The action (allow/deny) specified on that matched line will be done.

So where you place the above http_access lines determine which transactions will be able to reach and be tested by them.
