To configure the Squid service for HAProxy:

   icap_service kwts_req reqmod_precache icap://<IP address of the server with HAProxy>:1344/av/reqmod

   icap_service kwts_res respmod_precache icap://<IP address of the server with HAProxy>:1344/av/respmod

2. Restart the Squid service. To do so, execute the command:

   service squid restart

Configuration of the Squid service for HAProxy is now complete.
