I would check the howto iptables. This is not squid related.

Hi, I am seeing some users are bypassing the squid proxy servers by
going directly to the net. Any way to restrict this? They simply do not
have the proxy server mentioned in their browser and using the proxy
server as their default gateway (which has 2 NICs, one pvt other
public).

I am running 2.4STABLE7 of SQUID on RH 7.3 and have the following
iptables commands in my rc.local file.

/sbin/iptables -t nat -P POSTROUTING DROP
/sbin/iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
