[squid-users] SQUID and WCCP V1 in an ISP setup

Kind Attn.: Who ever might have setup the WCCP successfully and Henrik Nordstrom

Hi

I am working in an ISP environment where there are four links to the internet world. All are not of same capacity. I am running BGP to send traffic through various links. Now, for the past couple of months I am struggling to setup a transparent proxy in my network. Some how I am ending up with troubles n customer pressure. I nearly have 4 and half megs to serve and at any point of time my customers online (no of pcs is touching aroung 700 to 800 ps).

I have cacheRAQ4 with me with 20GB HDD 512RAM + DS10 with 512RAM n 18GB HDD (On Digital Unix) + Intel P-III, PC 512RAM 8GBHDD. All the three are running squid and I would like to make a optimal sharing among the cache servers.

can any one suggest how do I go about? Is the port redirection mechanism necessary if the cache listens on port 80? Is the sibling relation among cache servers increases the performance? How do I tackle the latency issue...

Totally mind boggling...

Can any one help me out?

Thanks
