Remove the "Range" HTTP header with squid

Question

I am using squid 3.2.5 and I would like to configure it such that it removes the "Range" HTTP header from all incoming GET requests. From this post, I understand that this can be done using the "range_offset_limit" option. I have tried adding the following to the squid configuration file:

acl GET method GET
range_offset_limit none GET

I also tried with just:

range_offset_limit none

, but none of the configurations seem to work.

Any idea on how I could accomplish this?

Thanks

Answer 1

It seems that the "request_header_access" directive does the trick:

request_header_access Range deny all

This also has the advantage that it works with older versions of squid.
