Squid Transparent?

[Shonk]

I have been messing with squid on my server and fancy trying redirecting all web traffic from the ac88u to squid

can anyone point me to a script plz

i want to redirect all to 192.168.0.4 port 3128

do i have to give squid any custom setup for transparent?

iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -i br0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to 192.168.0.4:3128

If the service is running on the router:

iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -i br0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3128


Squid need to be configured first to work as transparent mode.

http_port 3128 transparent

Curious to know what your experience with squid is after you had some time testing with it. I tried it on my pfSense appliance. But I removed it after a few days. It was causing issues with streaming media being non responsive.

thanks any other ports?

iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -i br0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to 192.168.0.4:3128

iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -i br0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3128

http_port 3128 transparent

You are welcome.

If you want to redirect other ports than 80 (http), you can also add -dport 443 (https), 21 (ftp), etc...

What is your goal with using squid? Transparent mode will quite often introduce "oddities" in some web behavior. I without a doubt prefer explicit mode and just block general outbound Internet access that isn't coming from my squid box.
