acl
mac1 arp 00:e0:4d:9f:55:7d
(Mac address of client)
http_access allow mac1 (allow browsing to above created mac acl)
http_access allow mac1 (allow browsing to above created mac acl)
#Add
the above two lines to squid.conf and save the file
Restart
or reload squid service
[root@server
~]# service squid restart

Important:
Always seperate the mac address digits with colons (:). In windows
operating systems mac address are shown as hyphen(-) seperated.

Squidblacklist.org is the worlds leading publisher of native acl blacklists tailored specifically for Squid proxy, and alternative formats for all major third party plugins as well as
many other filtering platforms. Including SquidGuard, DansGuardian, and ufDBGuard, as well as pfSense and more.
There is room for better blacklists, we intend to fill that gap.
It would be our pleasure to serve you.
