scthe/squid3_vagrant-chef

Configure hierarchies of Squid3 cache servers through private Chef cookbooks. Simulated with Vagrant

Squid3 exercises using Vagrant and Chef-solo

Usage

Get it running

1. Install VirtualBox
2. Install Vagrant
3. Install Vagrant omnibus plugin vagrant plugin install vagrant-omnibus
4. Execute in project directory: vagrant up

By now You have 3 VMs running with ubuntu and squid3 installed. It may take a while when running the command for the first time as it needs to download the OS image.

Creating cache hierarchy ( assuming all is up and running)

1. Open script file
2. In script change hierarchyId ( in line 3) to one of: 1, 2, 3 or 4
3. Execute in project directory: vagrant provision
4. Execute curl ( on host machine) with selected vm address as proxy f.e. curl -x 192.168.56.101:3128 http://www.deepsloweasy.com/ or just run on of the scripts from scripts folder
5. Go to logs to view generated data f.e. here if You are interested in squid1's logs and configuration after running the 3rd hierarchy

Kill the VMs:

vagrant halt

You can also ssh into the machine: vagrant ssh MACHINE_NAME, where MACHINE_NAME is one of:

• squid0
• squid1
• squid2
