The Squid Cache on fe.wormbase.org

The Cache Manager CGI

The Cache Manager CGI is only available from fe.wormbase.org:81. Note you must be "on localhost" in order to use this statistics viewer. You can access this CGI by tunneling port 81 traffic to fe.wormbase.org and then accessing the following URL:

http://localhost:81/squid/cachemgr.cgi
CacheHost   : fe.wormbase.org
CachePort   : 80
Managername : [LSs canine]
Password    : [none required]

RRD Tool / real-time graphical analysis

You can also monitor squid performance in real-time graphically using RRDTools. Again, these tools are located behind the firewall on port fe.wormbase.org:81.

1 day statistics:
http://localhost:81/squid-monitor/1day.cgi
1 week statistics:
