Following is my squid config :

http_port 3129 intercept
https_port 3131 intercept ssl-bump cert=/etc/ray/certificates/myCA.pem \
    generate-host-certificates=off dynamic_cert_mem_cache_size=2MB
## For Captive Portal
http_port 3132 intercept
https_port 3133 intercept ssl-bump cert=/etc/ray/certificates/myCA.pem \
    generate-host-certificates=off dynamic_cert_mem_cache_size=1MB

#sslcrtd_program /usr/lib/squid/ssl_crtd -s /var/lib/ssl_db -M 4MB

acl tls_s2_client_hello at_step SslBump2

I am redirecting port 80 and port 443 traffic to squid..

I went through some blogs and forums which suggest that Whatsapp seems to
send non SSL traffic on port 443 (
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/guides/network-requirements/)

And since I am running in intercept mode, it seems to terminate non-SSL
traffic as well..

Could someone kindly suggest how to bypass this..
