Setting up a proxy domain name ip: Configuring proxy server connection methods using domain names instead of IPs

Figuring out why you need a domain name instead of an IP

Everyone should have encountered this situation: proxy server IP changed every now and then, every time you have to manually change the configuration, annoying as hell. At this time, if you use the domain name binding proxy server, you can use your own house number as stable - even if the IP change, domain name resolution automatically follow, no one to keep an eye on.

For example, let's say you're using a proxy address of114.55.66.77:8080Change toproxy.ipipgo.xyzAfter this domain name form, even if the background IP how to change, the client configuration does not have to move at all. This trick is particularly useful for businesses that require long-term stable agents, such as data collection or automated testing of these scenarios.

Hands-on guide to configure domain name proxy

Step 1: Get an exclusive domain name
Register a new domain name with any domain name service provider, it is recommended to choose a cold extension (e.g. .xyz/.site) which is cheaper. The point is to change the domain name resolution record type toA records, pointing to the current proxy server IP.

 Example DNS Resolution Configuration
Hostname: proxy
Record type: A
TTL: 600
Value: 114.55.66.77

Step 2: Client Configuration Magic
Take the Python crawler for example, and replace the original IP address with the domain name:

import requests

proxies = {
  'http': 'http://proxy.ipipgo.xyz:8080',
  'https': 'http://proxy.ipipgo.xyz:8080'
}

response = requests.get('http://example.com', proxies=proxies)

If you use an off-the-shelf proxy tool, just replace the IP with the domain name in the server address field in the settings. Remember to include the port number, don't just write the domain name and be done with it.
