There should not be any example of DNS servers configured in squid.conf.
Because configuring DNS servers directly in squid.conf is not a good idea.

Squid will auto-configure itself via /etc/resolv.conf. That in turn
should be auto-configured by the router DHCP or RAD the same way as your
clients DNS is auto-configured.
