Re: [squid-users] Transparent but not intercepting proxy

it is not for applicaions that need to know an IP address of the client, but for web traffic acceleration and traffic shaping purposees. Intercepting proxy is "all or nothing scenario" on ISP site and customers can not voluntairy switch it on/off themselfs.

My idea is to allow users to set proxy in their browser to use (or not) our SQUID server, but we need their IP addresses to be preserved by squid (like in intercepting + tproxy scenario) for traffic shaping and control purposes.

# No.
