Re: [squid-users] Reverse Proxy Cache ONLY Relative URL

use cache_peer option with type sibling on both. make sure to add
"proxy-only" to avoid double dipping.
use ICP or HTCP for squid-to-squid communication to share the
available caches between the 2.
start with ICP as its simple to setup.

check out the link below for a complete list of config options.
