And one last question on the NAT'ing subject..

I need to provide full redundancy with automatic failover on all devices (which would now include this NAT device between the Proxies and Internet).

A couple of routers with a VIP and HSRP? Or is there an easy solution using Open/FreeBSD or Linux?

The Squid -> AV server will be bypassing the firewall, but I guess I could throw another NAT box outside the AV servers.

Is this a common solution to this problem?

I seen it done at many places requiring more than one proxy, for the exact reasons you describe.


Other sites uses a proxy.pac file with a list of known troublesome sites and redirecting these to a specific proxy solving the problem that way.

Others use a load balancing scheme where the same user will always use the same proxy (unless unavailable).
