Title: where are the proxy logs??
Post by: axel2078 on December 13, 2020, 06:05:34 AM
Earlier today, I enabled  the web proxy and turned on transparent mode.  Where do you go to see what sites people on your network are going to?  Is it the access log?  If so, mine is totally blank.

Nevermind.  After following the documentation I found here: https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/proxytransparent.html

I realized that I needed to create a firewall rule for the transparent proxy.  You'd think that would happen automatically when you enable it, but it doesn't.  Anyway, I can see entries in the Access log now.

Stupid question but are the web proxy ports TCP or UDP?

I think it's TCP, or at least this website says it is.  https://www.adminsub.net/tcp-udp-port-finder/3128 (https://www.adminsub.net/tcp-udp-port-finder/3128)

Squid only supports the UDP protocol to provide communication between different caches.

For parent Proxy it's TCP as it is acting as a Client. UDP is for ICP which has nothing to do with parent proxy here
