How to fill in the web proxy server? Address, port, protocol filling example

Handy for filling out proxy server information

Many of our partners will be confused for the first time with the proxy IP, especially when we see that we have to fill in the address, port and these parameters, it feels like solving math problems. Don't panic, today we will use the vernacular to teach you how to fill in, to ensure that you can get started after reading.

How exactly do I fill in the address port?

A proxy server address is like a courier's shipping address, usually in the form of aDomain name or IP + port number. For example, the dynamic proxy given by ipipgo looks like this:

Address: gateway.ipipgo.net
Port: 30001

Note that the ports may be different for different packages, e.g. a static proxy may begateway-static.ipipgo.net:40001If you fill in the wrong information, the agent will not be available. If you fill in the wrong information, the agent will not be able to use it, just like you can't get through to the wrong phone number.

The wrong agreement can be a big deal.

There are just two mainstream protocols now:

Here's the kicker: ipipgo's proxies all support both protocols, but some software willForces the protocol type to be specified. For example, when using the Python requests library:

proxies = {
  "http": "http://用户名:密码@gateway.ipipgo.net:30001",
  "https": "http://用户名:密码@gateway.ipipgo.net:30001"
}

The http prefix must be written here, even if the actual request is made with https.

Example of a real-world form filling

Take an example of a common scenario:

Browser Settings

Address field fill in gateway.ipipgo.net
Port 30001
Authentication method: Username/Password

crawler code

import requests
proxy = "http://用户:密码@gateway.ipipgo.net:30001"
response = requests.get("https://目标网站", proxies={"http": proxy, "https": proxy})

Reminder of common pitfalls

1. address bandwidth: Some tools require the port to be written in the address, for examplegateway.ipipgo.net:30001

2. Authentication information encryption: ipipgo account password must be encoded in base64, you can use an online tool to transcode it

3. protocol mixing: Some software will automatically switch protocols, it is recommended to set the background to force the use of the specified protocols

QA First Aid Station

Q: I can't get on the Internet after filling out the proxy?
A: First check the three elements: ① address and port is correct ② protocol type is correct ③ account password is expired. It is recommended to use the test address provided by ipipgo to verify the first

Q: How do I test if the proxy is working?
A: Open your browser and visithttps://ip.ipipgo.netIf you can see the geographic location of the proxy IP, it means it's successful.

Q: What if I need to change IP frequently?
A: ipipgo's dynamic package supportSwitch IP on request, add the following to the address/rotateParameters are fine, for example:gateway.ipipgo.net/rotate:30001

Tips for choosing a package

Recommendations based on usage scenarios:

• Dynamic residential (standard): suitable for temporary tasks, such as rush, spike, IP time limit can be set 1-30 minutes
• Dynamic Residential (Business): Choose this when you need a large pool of IPs to support 100+ concurrent requests per second.
• Static homes: essential to do long-term operations, such as TikTok account to raise a number, an IP can be used for 30 days

As a final reminder, all of ipipgo's proxies come with aFailure auto retryFunction, encounter network fluctuations will automatically switch the line, this point is particularly friendly to white people.
