Hi all, I'm presently deploying 4.2.0 in a parent/child setup, with two parents acting as reverse proxies, and the children obviously querying through those parents.
This is all working fine, I am after some clarity on the ICP configuration though. Ideally, I want the two parents to talk to each other, and use ICP before hitting the origin servers. This is working fine. What's the suggested setup for a child cache? Don't enable ICP back to the parents? If I enable ICP on the children, including the parents, I'm seeing parents in ICP query children for data, which from a network distance perspective, is slower than fetching from the origin servers. The children servers are also geographically distributed, and in some cases, talking to remote child proxies is slower than just returning to the origin via the parents. I notice in the source as well that there's an ICP ctype of 3. What's this option used for, as it's also mentioned in some of the documentation but not explained?
