Hi,
Is dst easier/faster for squid then dstdomain to handle?
I'm asking this because I see a lot of the pre-made black/white lists
seem to be of the dst type while it seems to me that dstdomain is more
effective and easier to manage since you don't need to add an entry
for every single host on a domain you want to block/allow you just add
.domain.tld to the list.
Also as far as I understand when a user tries to use an IP instead of
a domain name if the IP is known to be matched to a domain in a list
whatever rule was applied to said list will be applied to the IP even
though it is not mentioned specifically in the list?
Thanks and regards,
Eli
