RE: [squid-users] Squid Cache: Version 3.1.15 - Adding custom header

Thank you.

If for instance there was a header to replace and it was an RFC defined header - would this work?

request_header_replace X-Sophos-WSA-ClientIP %SRC

Is %SRC a valid parameter ?

replace is actually *replace*. There must be a copy of the same header removed from the request in order to replace.

Additionally this is only possible in current Squid with registered headers (RFC defined). Unknown custom headers cannot be replaced like this. Sponsorship or patches welcome to enable this for unregistered headers.

Client IP information is already provided by Squid in these common headers:
   X-Forwarded-For: [... ,] $(client-ip)
   X-Client-IP: $(client-ip)

Ensure forwarded_for is ON (the default) to receive them from your Squid.
