The header of a HTTP request usually includes the "host" that the
request is intended for. If this header is not included by the client,
setting "defaultsite=" will allow Squid to fill it in.

cache_peer is a configuration directive that tells Squid to access the
referenced partner for some (or all) requests.
http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/cache_peer/

ip_of_exchange_server is the IP address of the partner.

no_query indicates that this partner does not support ICP (Inter Cache
Protocol) queries.

originserver means that this partner is not a proxy, but is a content
containing host.

login=PASS indicates that Squid should (if asked for authentication by
the partner) ask the client for authentication and pass the answer to
the partner.
