You need to configure a cache_peer for each backend server you want
to serve from:

cache_peer 10.108.111.34 parent 80 0 name=test no-query no-digest originserver
cache_peer 10.108.18.254 parent 80 0 name=new no-query no-digest originserver

The "originserver" option tells squid not to make proxy requests to
it, i.e. to request /foo/bar rather than http://server/foo/bar.

The "name" option lets you refer to the cache_peer with something
other than its IP address, which can make your configuration more
readable and is especially useful if you have multiple servers on
the same IP but a different port.

You then define acls to specify what traffic to allow or disallow to
each of these peers, and apply them with cache_peer_access:

acl test_server_paths url_regex 63\.45\.45\.45/login/test
acl new_server_paths url_regex 63\.45\.45\.45/login/new

cache_peer_access test allow test_server_paths
cache_peer_access test deny all

cache_peer_access new allow new_server_paths
cache_peer_access new deny all

You can probably come up with more efficient rules, but that's the
general approach. The "test" and "new" in the cache_peer_access
lines correspond to the name= assigned to each cache_peer; if you
don't explicitly set a name= you just use the hostname or IP address
of the peer.
