Oh , Squid is Not running on this box. then, REDIRECT will not work.
What Your firewall can do is MARK port 80 traffic and route it via
squid box. that is Known As Transparent Proxy to a Remote Box
you need both iptables and ip route2 pkgs.
Okay, below are the rules, you need to add.
On your firewall, pls add below rules
iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -j ACCEPT -p tcp --dport 80 -s
ipaddressofsquid-box
iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -j MARK --set-mark 3 -p tcp --dport 80
ip rule add fwmark 3 table 2
ip route add default via ipaddressofsquid-box dev eth1 table 2
dev eth1 is connected to squidbox. pls change it accodingly.
On your squid Box, Pls add beow rules.
iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT
--to-port 8080
this is where REDIRECT takes place.
In addition to that, you will have to make sure, port 8080 is open on
this squid box , since squid is running on port 8080.
I thinkeverything is open on squid box.
Now, clients gateway is the ip of the firewall/NAT box. and also check
Dns in clients.
