Option Name:

authenticate_ip_ttl

Suggested Config:


Details:

If you use proxy authentication and the 'max_user_ip' ACL,
this directive controls how long Squid remembers the IP
addresses associated with each user.  Use a small value
(e.g., 60 seconds) if your users might change addresses
quickly, as is the case with dialup.   You might be safe
using a larger value (e.g., 2 hours) in a corporate LAN
environment with relatively static address assignments.
