Note  If you do not want all requests to go to the parent cache, you can configure the proxy to route certain requests directly to the origin server (for example, requests that contain specific URLs) by setting parent proxy rules in the parent.config configuration file (described in parent.config).

Note  If the request is a cache miss on the parent, the parent retrieves the content from the origin server (or from another cache, depending on the parent's configuration). The parent caches the content and then sends a copy to the proxy (its child), where it is cached and served to the client.
