Firstly i'm using Windows 2008 Server to set this up. I'm a starter with Squid so would like to know basic networking/TCP-IP setup of Squid server to enable it to serve two different VLAN simultaneously like: 1. Do i need two NIC on squid server to enable it to serve two VLAN? 2. If answer to 1 is Yes, then what should be the gateway settings for both NIC? Should both NIC have their gateway set?
If Yes, will this configuration work on Windows 2008 Server? If No, how will Squid server route the traffic from both VLANs? Since i'm just starting up with the setup, any other suggestions/considerations related to initial Squid Proxy setup are welcome.

Use cache_peer if your ISP have proxies you can route directly to. Or tcp_outgoing_* functionality to set TOS or MARK values for the system route selection to make decisions about particular traffic.
