socks5 server: SOCKS5 server setup method

How much trouble is it to set up a socks5 server manually?

If you want to build your own socks5 server, please note that it is not as easy as you think. First of all, you have to get an overseas server, just to choose the room can make you tangled until dawn. Then you have to configure the firewall rules, or you will be pinched by hackers as a soft target. More headaches is the problem of IP blocking, ordinary room IP can not be used for two days by the platform mark, the maintenance cost is higher than buying ready-made services.

 Example of building socks5 with Dante (white guy version)
sudo apt-get install dante-server
cat > /etc/danted.conf << EOF
logoutput: syslog
user.privileged: root
user.unprivileged: nobody
internal: 0.0.0.0 port = 1080
external: eth0
method: username none
client pass {
    from: 0.0.0.0/0 to: 0.0.0.0/0
    log: connect disconnect error
log: connect disconnect error }
log: connect disconnect error }
    from: 0.0.0.0/0 to: 0.0.0.0/0
    command: bind connect udpassociate
    log: connect disconnect error
}

Just look at the configuration file, it's a big headache, right? Not to mention the need to engage in account verification, traffic monitoring and these additional features. Build their own machine IP quality is not stable, do data collection minutes by the target site blocked IP.

Saving program: ipipgo ready-made socks5 proxy

Instead of tossing servers, just use an off-the-shelf solution. For example, ipipgo'sStatic Home PackageThe first thing you need to do is to give the fixed socks5 connection information directly. Take the game proxy as a chestnut, with their Japanese node latency can be suppressed to below 60ms, much more stable than self-built servers.

Highlighting theirTK LineThis line is specially optimized for Southeast Asia. Before a cross-border e-commerce brother, with ordinary agents always lose packets, changed this line after the order processing speed directly doubled.

Three-step access to the ipipgo proxy

1. After registering on the official website, go to the console and selectProtocol type socks5
2. Area/package on demand (static residential recommended for novices)
3. Copy IP:Port + Account Password to Client

Give an example of code for a Python crawler:

import requests

proxies = {
    'http': 'socks5://user:pass@jp01.ipipgo.net:1080',
    'https': 'socks5://user:pass@jp01.ipipgo.net:1080'
}

resp = requests.get('http://example.com', proxies=proxies)
print(resp.text)

Be careful to replace user:pass with your own authentication information, and don't misspell the region code (e.g., jp for Japan, us for the U.S.).

Guidelines on demining of common problems

Q: What is the difference between socks5 and http proxy?
A: socks5 can proxy all types of traffic (including UDP), http can only handle web requests. Game acceleration, video transmission, these must use socks5

Q: Do I need to be tech savvy to use it?
A: ipipgo provides ready-made clients for windows/mac. Double-click to connect, almost as easy as using WeChat!

Q: How to choose between static IP and dynamic IP?
A: Long-term fixed business (such as store operations) with static, short-term tasks (such as grab shoes script) with dynamic more cost-effective

Lastly, don't buy an unknown agent on the cheap. Regular service providers have a trial mechanism, such as ipipgo new users can receive500MB test trafficIt is reliable to use it first and buy it later. Encounter technical problems directly to their customer service, the response speed than the free program ten streets faster.
