Hello,

We have a few Squid proxy servers with a total of around 400 ports, that we
have been connecting to directly so far. We have decided that we want to
add a cloud instance in the middle of the connections, that will
authenticate users and only then send them to the squid instance.

I was thinking of using Squid for that, but we have to use over 400 ports,
and I know Squid has a limit of 128. I also know that it is possible to
build Squid in a way to will enable more ports than 128, but this comes
with a performance hit.

Is it a smart idea to use Squid for this use case or just use a different
proxy software that doesn't have this limitation?

Thanks,
Roee
