squid is configured as a transparent proxy. That means that the machines in my network do not need to be configured to use the proxy, they don't even know that they are proxied. Shorewall is just configured to transparently redirect all http trafic to the proxy using the instructions found here : http://www.shorewall.net/Shorewall_Squid_Usage.html#Local Those instruction seem to depend on TC_ENABLED=internal The squid configuration itself is not impacted, but squid won't receive any traffic if shorewall stops redirecting it.
