I have a problem of accommodating a large increase in the number of
users on my LAN, without proper planning at the level of the router.
The router now has a throttle of around 50%!
Fortunately, in our times of excess, we had not implemented
web-caching. This, I  hope, could be the short-term answer to serving
the users on the LAN and reducing throttle.

For administrative issues, it is best if squid is implemented as a
transparent cache. Most info on the net has squid sitting on the
router, and is transparent only to the client. Since content filtering
etc, is provided through a UTM box - Cyberoam - I need squid to be
transparent to both client and web-server. TPROXY promises such a
feature.

Does anyone have the experience in setting this kind of a
configuration, and can point me to some easy-to-follow how-tos? Would
also be glad to hear from anyone who has another solution.

Regards,
Andrew
