create our own proxy

[8mafia]

Hi,
In this tutorial, I'm going to teach you how to setup http proxy in centOS.
This training is very simple.
First with instructions
yum install squid - y
install a http proxy
then with an order
yum install nano - y
We will also install the nano editor.
We will follow the following command
nano /etc/squid/squid.conf
We edit the above file according to the file below:

#
# Recommended minimum configuration:
#

# Example rule allowing access from your local networks.
# Adapt to list your (internal) IP networks from where browsing
# should be allowed
acl localnet src 0.0.0.0/0      # RFC1918 possible internal network
acl localnet src 172.16.0.0/12  # RFC1918 possible internal network
acl localnet src 192.168.0.0/16 # RFC1918 possible internal network

acl localnet src fc00::/7       # RFC 4193 local private network range
acl localnet src fe80::/10      # RFC 4291 link-local (directly plugged) machin$

acl SSL_ports port 443
acl Safe_ports port 80          # http
acl Safe_ports port 21          # ftp
acl Safe_ports port 443         # https
acl Safe_ports port 70          # gopher
acl Safe_ports port 210         # wais
acl Safe_ports port 1025-65535 # unregistered ports
acl Safe_ports port 280         # http-mgmt

acl Safe_ports port 280         # http-mgmt
acl Safe_ports port 488         # gss-http
acl Safe_ports port 591         # filemaker
acl Safe_ports port 777         # multiling http
acl CONNECT method CONNECT

#
# Recommended minimum Access Permission configuration:
#
# Deny requests to certain unsafe ports

http_access allow !Safe_ports

# Deny CONNECT to other than secure SSL ports
http_access allow CONNECT !SSL_ports

# Only allow cachemgr access from localhost
http_access allow localhost manager
http_access allow manager

# We strongly recommend the following be uncommented to protect innocent

# web applications running on the proxy server who think the only
# one who can access services on "localhost" is a local user
#http_access deny to_localhost

#
# INSERT YOUR OWN RULE(S) HERE TO ALLOW ACCESS FROM YOUR CLIENTS
#

# Example rule allowing access from your local networks.
# Adapt localnet in the ACL section to list your (internal) IP networks

# from where browsing should be allowed
http_access allow localnet
http_access allow localhost

# And finally deny all other access to this proxy
http_access allow all

# Squid normally listens to port 3128
http_port 9191

# Uncomment and adjust the following to add a disk cache directory.
#cache_dir ufs /var/spool/squid 100 16 256

# Leave coredumps in the first cache dir
coredump_dir /var/spool/squid

#
# Add any of your own refresh_pattern entries above these.
#
refresh_pattern ^ftp:           1440    20%     10080
refresh_pattern ^gopher:        1440    0%      1440
refresh_pattern -i (/cgi-bin/|\?) 0     0%      0
refresh_pattern .               0       20%     4320

As we see, we have added the following instructions in the first section.

acl localnet src 0.0.0.0 / 0
and changed all our deny to the allow.

and at the end we will follow the following orders

ctrl + X and then y
then :


systemctl enable squid
systemctl start squid

What server spec's would you suggest for setting up a proxy for use with an IPTV service?

 

[zeri]

the question is why would you do it at all

In general, to launch the iptv service, there is no need for proxy, depending on the resource requirements.

 

[8mafia]

If you lived like me in a country that had limits! You have to do that.
but you can also use your physical pain to connect.
