Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers newbie Help configuring Fedora as a proxy using SQUID Post 302204070 by stcroix111 on Tuesday 10th of June 2008 12:52:08 PM

You can test SQUID out using the server itself. By default SQUID listens on port 3128 so you can configure your browser on the proxy server to use 127.0.0.1 with port 3128.

To use it as a proxy server for the rest of your network, you will need to modify the conf file to set the ACL to permit only your LAN subnet. The .conf file is well documented.

I would create a DHCP reservation for the proxy server. Your sys admin should be able to help you out. A static IP address would work as well.
