FYI: Enabling balance_on_multiple_ip does nothing in Squid v3.5. > I noticed this is not available in Squid 4, is it on by default? Or > is there some alternative? Squid is no longer capable of rotating host IPs on every access. * AFAICT, the code associated with that directive was silently and, I bet, accidentally removed in v3.2 (commit 9a6476c). The release notes for that version were updated seven years later (commit 635c161). * Squid v3.2 release notes associated with balance_on_multiple_ip removal say that such rotation is no longer possible. * Current squid.conf.documented says that such rotation is no longer relevant. FWIW, I disagree with the last two assertions: The Happy Eyeballs principle is compatible and largely orthogonal to the IP rotation idea. Squid just lacks the code to properly support that rotation.
