First, the browser comes with proxy settings
Many people don't realize that the major browsers have ready-made proxy configuration portals. For example, Chrome has a proxy configuration portal in theSettings - Advanced - System - ProxyYou can fill in the proxy server address directly. Here's a trick for you: after you fill in the proxy address and port, remember to check the box of"Use the same proxy for all protocols."Otherwise, you may not be able to connect to certain sites.
// An example configuration
Proxy server: gateway.ipipgo.net
Port: 8080
Authentication account: user123
Authentication password: pass456
From personal experience, browser proxies are best for temporary use. If you encounter a situation where there are suddenly more CAPTCHAs, it is likely that the IP has been recognized, so hurry to the ipipgo client to change to a new IP.
Second, the code directly connected to the agent
Old timers who are engaged in data collection look here! When crawling data with the requests library, just add two lines of code to go proxy:
import requests
proxies = {
'http': 'http://user:pass@gateway.ipipgo.net:8080',
'https': 'http://user:pass@gateway.ipipgo.net:8080'
}
response = requests.get('destination URL', proxies=proxies)
Reminder: Remember to replace user and pass with your own generated in the ipipgo backend!dynamic keyThe key is valid for 24 hours each, which is much more secure than a fixed password.
Third, the client a key to switch
If you think it's too much trouble to configure manually, you can use ipipgo's client tool directly. After downloading and installing it, you can see the node map of more than 200 countries in the world, and double click on it to cut IP in seconds. there is a hidden function: hold down the Ctrl key and point to the country icon, you can specify the specific city node.
Tested theirTK LineThe latency is about 40% lower than normal lines. Remember to choose this special line if you do live push streaming or cross-country video conferencing.
IV. Multi-IP rotation strategy
For those who need a lot of IP switching look at this comparison table:
| business scenario | Recommended Packages | Switching frequency |
|---|---|---|
| E-commerce multi-account | Static Residential IP | 1 account/IP/month |
| data acquisition | Dynamic Residential (Business) | Change IP every 5 minutes |
| advertising placement | cross-border rail line | Switch by Promotion Area |
V. Automatic API Extraction
Programmers love this feature, call the interface to get IPs in bulk. note to add theGeographic screening parameters, to avoid getting irrelevant IP resources:
GET https://api.ipipgo.com/v1/ips?country=us&state=texas
Authorization: Bearer your API key
It is recommended to set up an automatic recovery mechanism to actively release the IP when it is used for more than 6 hours, so that billing is more cost-effective.
VI. Troubleshooting
Situation 1: Connected to the proxy but can not open the web page
First check the port is not used 8080/1080 these common ports, change to 3000-4000 between the cold port to try
