[squid-users] GENEVE?

[Jonas Steinberg]

Any advice on where I would find such a protocol wrapper, were one to exist?  Also I assume this would mean compiling my own squid then?

    I am not familiar with draft-ietf-nvo3-geneve details, but I see nothing
    particularly crazy on the surface of that draft: Squid is already
    capable of tunneling intercepted TLS and forwarded HTTP CONNECT traffic
    while GENEVE seems like one more way to tell Squid about the desired
    tunnel end points.

    Perhaps some form of GENEVE support is already possible via some kind of
    3rd-party wrappers? FWIW, the possible existence of such protocol
    wrappers was the primary reason I did not give a straight "no" answer to
    your original question...


    You may file a feature request on Squid Bugzilla, keeping the following
    FAQ in mind:
