      Hello,

      I am using pfSense + Squid as a reverse proxy / accelerator / reverse cache server.

      By default the pfSense webconfigurator will create the cache-peer with "proxy-only" option.
      In my case, it completely disable the caching feature of the reverse proxy.

      And it seems to be the normal behavior for this option, from the Squid Wiki:

      proxy-only: objects fetched from the peer will not be stored locally

      Is there any way to remove this option by default from the pfSense GUI ?
      I managed to add all my specifics arguments via the GUI except for this one.
      And so far I can't find anywhere to change this default option.

      Thank you for the help. :)

        No. You can patch /usr/local/pkg/squid_reverse.inc if you need it.
