hi,
i am evaluating the use of a proxy server for web traffic with dst port 80. in the proxy settings i cant seem to specify the use of RAM rather than the system disk or a dedicated disk. a proxy in my opinion is no good if the content does not come from the RAM. is that in general not possible on ROS or am i just reading the options for the proxy wrong ?
kind regards
Jan
cache-on-disk=no cache is stored on RAM, RouterOS supports up to 2GB of RAM.
cache-on-disk=yes cache is stored on HDD.
cool, thanks.
i have noticed that web pages come up okay, but downloading any files or documents it is slowing down a lot. how i use the proxy is that i redirect all traffic to port 80 to the proxy on port 8080. the proxy is configured as follows:
/ip proxy
set always-from-cache=no cache-administrator=my@email cache-drive=system cache-hit-dscp=4 cache-on-disk=no enabled=yes max-cache-size=unlimited max-client-connections=600 max-fresh-time=3d max-server-connections=600 parent-proxy=0.0.0.0 parent-proxy-port=0 port=8080 serialize-connections=no src-address=0.0.0.0
would that setup be sufficient for the ROS proxy or do i need to fine tune something to make it work perfect for all web traffic ? in the moment i am only testing with all web traffic from our office, but the intention is to run a transparent proxy for our customers.
regards
Jan
