Squid iptables firewall


Problem: Firewall is applied on my network as given in below diagram; problem is that after configuring the firewall client system didnt get internet ping to firewall on both lan ips.

My network flow as follows

                Linux DHCP & Squid Proxy server
                                           |
Client System---> Switch ------>Firewall ----> Router---->VSNL Leased line

My problem is firewall set on linux server my cli

Solution:

Squid iptables firewall

The following iptables firewall is suited for a dual-homed Squid proxy server. ssh (TCP port 22), squid (TCP port 3128), and ICMP ECHO requests are allowed on the internal (LAN) interface. 
Squid is configured to proxy ftp, http, https, and AOL Instant Messenger traffic. In addition, the server is running a caching/forwarding name server and time server and therefore requires therefore requires outgoing UDP port 123 (ntp) and TCP/UDP port 53 (dns).
