[pfSense Support] Where do I put squid ?

2008-05-11 Thread Mike Lever
I’ve got Pfsense running on one box going out to 5 DSL WAN Ports. I have now setup a squid box running separately. I would like to run it as a transparent proxy on my network. How do you suggest I set it up ? Do I put another NIC in the squid box, then setup a firewall rule to route all http

battery appears to be fine. i didn't put a volt meter on it, but when the computer has been off, the cmos info stayed current. i'll take it down on monday, and if it is low on voltage, i'll report back Date: Sun, 11 May 2008 16:29:39 +1200 From:

i think it would be cool to route http traffic to the squid box, but put a rule just infront of it to allow your squid box to go out the firewall. for security i would not allow a second nic to go out the squid box onto the internet. i myself set up the browsers manually for the squid box.

Hi Dean , Thanks for the feedback, so are you suggesting I only use 1 NIC for the squid box ? as opposed to 2, 1 coming IN from the Pfsense / internal network and 1 going BACK to the Pfsense. Regards, Mike Lever Tenacity Films (Pty) Ltd t/a Velocity Films (T) +2711-807-0100 (F)

that's the thing, you don't... Each time you change anything in your rules or reboot the box, this configuration is lost. You could save the edited rules.debug file and use it whenever you loose this specific rule Sex, 2008-05-09 às 16:14 -0300, Diego A. Gomez escreveu: 2008/5/9 David Meireles

Done that, but where I was battling was setting IP addresses on the pfsense interface (the squid is static) what do I set as the ip address and gateway ? Also how do I configure the firewall rules ? Any ideas there ? Mike Lever Tenacity Films (Pty) Ltd t/a Velocity Films (t) +2711-807-0100

Ok, on the DHCP Server you have as gateway the squid server, and the squid server will have as gateway the pfsense IP (that way you won't need to have 2 interfaces on the squid server, since it's all in the same subnet). About the rules, use only the squid server to apply the squid rules, and the

Thaks David ! Bear in mind that I am using it as a transparent proxy. Surely I must set some rules on the firewall to route all http traffic to the squid box and back to the pfsense box ? Mike Lever Tenacity Films (Pty) Ltd t/a Velocity Films (t) +2711-807-0100 (f) +2711-807-1208

Don't know which squid and sitro are you using, but in my scenario, using pfsense as gateway and IPCop as squid (before started using squid on pfSense), the IPCop host would automaticly send the trafic (in case of http, after entering the squid process) to it's gateway, that would be the pfsense
