      Hi Guys

      well ive trolled the forums abit, im sure there has to be a config file I can edit to make this work.

      Recently we upgraded our internet connection on our secondary internet connection.
      We now wish to make this the connection people browse through.

      Originally when set up we installed squid and used transparent proxy mode, it by default uses WAN.
      This setup was fine but now we are interested in making use of the extra bandwidth on our OPT.

      We have 6 vpns configured and a heap of rules that I dont want to change.

      Is there somewhere I can edit from console to till squid to use transparent mode on OPT and not WAN?

        I would suggest swapping your WAN and OPT1 so that all traffic, not just your squid traffic, would use your preferred network.  Otherwise, have a look at squid.inc or wherever the redirect rules are written (search the forum, I have forgotten).

          I have created rules to push all things over OPT1 except the VPNs.

          If I turn Squidgaurd transparent proxy mode off these rules work fine.

          If I turn transparent proxy mode on any traffic on Port 80 going out on the WAN. This is what Im trying to change so that its going out on OPT
