Re: [squid-users] src and dst difference

"src" is used when you want to specify clients of your Squid server. For
instance, your local network:

acl my_net src 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0
http_access allow my_net

In the other hand, "dst" is used when you want to specify (for any purpose)
a range of IP addresses (or just one IP) which are outside your network and
aren't gonna use your Squid server as proxy. For instance, if you want to
deny for anyone in your network the access to the IP range: 216.219.30.0,
you simply put this two lines in your squid.conf:

acl denied_net 216.219.30.0/255.255.255.0
http_access deny denied_net

Hope was useful.
