Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 848124
RFE - IP address of the remote host accessed via squid in version 3.2
Last modified: 2016-05-10 20:12:18 EDT
1. Proposed title of this feature request IP address of the remote host accessed via squid in version 3.2 2. Who is the customer behind the request? Account name: Colorcon Customer segment:Tudor Panaitescu TAM/SRM customer: no Strategic Customer: no 3. What is the nature and description of the request? We are trying to find ways to correlate squid log information and firewall (Cisco ASA) log info inside a SIEM but we came across a problem related to web sites with multiple ip addresses (i.e google, when you do a nslookup on www.google.com you get multiple IP addresses). Squid 3.1 logs the URL, which includes the hostname but doesn't have the capability to log the IP address of the destination while ASA loggs just the IP address. Squid 3.2 has that capability (check squid config logformat documentation for <a and <p) and I was wondering if you guys can backport that feature into the mainline RHEL6.X so we have that correlation point. 4. Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here) implement SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) + event correlation w/ info from squid; <IP Address>:<port> of the destination host would be correlated w/ firewall logging info and also w/ IDS info 5. How would the customer like to achieve this? (List the functional requirements here) by using <A and log_ip_on_direct, but I still believe that it would be helpful to have the port as well, <p option in squid 3.2. 6. For each functional requirement listed in question 5, specify how Red Hat and the customer can test to confirm the requirement is successfully implemented. 7. Is there already an existing RFE upstream or in Red Hat bugzilla? No 8. Does the customer have any specific timeline dependencies? No 9. Is the sales team involved in this request and do they have any additional input? No 10. List any affected packages or components. squid-3.1.x.el6 11. Would the customer be able to assist in testing this functionality if implemented?
