Delay Pool

#This is the most important part for shaping incoming traffic with Squid

#For detailed description see squid.conf file or docs at http://www.squid-cache.org

#We don't want to limit downloads on our local network.

acl magic_words1 url_regex -i 192.168

#We want to limit downloads of these type of files

#Put this all in one line

acl magic_words2 url_regex -i ftp .exe .mp3 .vqf .tar.gz .gz .rpm .zip .rar .avi .mpeg .mpe .mpg .qt .ram .rm .iso .raw .wav .mov

#We don't block .html, .gif, .jpg and similar files, because they

#generally don't consume much bandwidth

#We want to limit bandwidth during the day, and allow

#full bandwidth during the night

#Caution! with the acl below your downloads are likely to break

#at 23:59. Read the FAQ in this bandwidth if you want to avoid it.

acl day time 09:00-23:59

#We have two different delay_pools

#View Squid documentation to get familiar

#with delay_pools and delay_class.

delay_pools 2

#First delay pool

#We don't want to delay our local traffic.

#There are three pool classes; here we will deal only with the second.

#First delay class (1) of second type (2).

delay_class 1 2

#-1/-1 mean that there are no limits.

delay_parameters 1 -1/-1 -1/-1

#magic_words1: 192.168 we have set before

delay_access 1 allow magic_words1

#Second delay pool.

#we want to delay downloading files mentioned in magic_words2.

#Second delay class (2) of second type (2).

delay_class 2 2

#The numbers here are values in bytes;

#we must remember that Squid doesn't consider start/stop bits

#5000/150000 are values for the whole network

#5000/120000 are values for the single IP

#after downloaded files exceed about 150000 bytes,

#(or even twice or three times as much)

#they will continue to download at about 5000 bytes/s

delay_parameters 2 5000/150000 5000/120000

#We have set day to 09:00-23:59 before.

delay_access 2 allow day

delay_access 2 deny !day
