Re: [squid-users] Selective peering

Hi,

I've told them to add:

        cache_peer_type our.squid.server parent .akamai.net .akamaitech.net

and I've added:

        acl peer1 src their.ip.address/32
        acl peer2 src their.ip.address/32
        acl akamai-dom dstdomain .akamai.net .akamaitech.net

        http_access allow peer1
        http_access allow peer2
        http_access deny all

        miss_access allow peer1 akamai-dom
        miss_access allow peer2 akamai-dom
        miss_access deny all

Do you want them to access the Akamai servers, or your Squid?

Seems you want them to fetch the objects from your Squid. For this, they
need to use your Squid as parent for the domains in question. See the
cache_peer_type directive. This needs to be done in their Squids and you
need to allow them miss_access.
