[squid-users] IP_FREEBIND or IP_TRANSPARENT support?

[Eliezer Croitoru]

On what OS?(since it does supports it)
But if you just need a NAT proxy then it's another story.

If one were to assign a whole /64 block of IPv6 IPs to a NIC on Linux then they would use the "ip route add local" method instead of adding each IP in the /etc/network/interfaces file.

>From the testing I have done the IPs that were assigned with the "ip route add local" don't work with Squid and the main reason for this is because Squid does not use IP_FREEBIND or IP_TRANSPARENT option on the socket connection.

Is there any option in the config file that enables this option?
