HAVP and Squid -Version 2.0 stable release

[lhchia]

how to setup HAVP and Squid proxy + port ? - version 2.0 stable release.

Scheme: {inet}->[HAVP]->[Squid cache]->{clients}
my configuration:- int - HAVP(8080) transparent - Squid (3128) Transparent - client.

1.parent for squid - configure HAVP as parent for Squid proxy;
2.transparent - all 'http' requests on interface(s) will be translated to the HAVP proxy server without any client(s) additional configuration necessary (worked as 'parent for squid' with 'transparent' Squid proxy);

1 and 2 is the same configuration? if i apply for squid(transparent proxy) .
the hapv will trigger the http traffic for virus scanning ?

OR i need to configure HAVP (3125) - Squid (3125).

please guide.

many thanks . pfsense really a rock !

please check my configuration

You have to choose only one package in trasparent mode, never both.

Also understand that transparent proxy does not work with https, just http.

To use squid to filter/cache http and https you need to setup a proxy server on clients browser.

so that mean i only need to disable
http proxy -> (uncheck or disable) Check this for enable proxy.

am i right?  :)

Enable the service and change the proxy mode for something different from transparent.

Always depend on what you need.

Squid has more options, havp has antivirus.

they can work together.
