The PXaaS dashboard enables the configuration of the Squid proxy on demand.
The configuration parameters are stored in a MySQL database.
For a new configuration to take effect, the squid.conf and squidGuard.conf files are
modified accordingly by the apache2 process and a restart of the squid3 service puts
these in effect.
