Types of connections

We offer two types of proxy connections: Rotating and Sticky.

Rotating

The IP address changes automatically with each new request.

You should use:

For HTTP/HTTPS

823 PORT

For SOCKS5

824 PORT


Sticky

Sticky proxies are port-based. IP addresses are bound to a specific port for a period of time.

The rotation interval for sticky proxies can range from 1 to 120 minutes, with the average duration being 30 minutes.

For sticky connections, you can use ports from 10000 to 20000.

An example of the HTTP sticky proxy:

curl -x "http://login:[email protected]:10000" https://api.ipify.org/

An example of the SOCKS5 sticky proxy:

curl -x "socks5://login:[email protected]:10000" https://api.ipify.org/

If no Rotation Interval is specified for a Sticky connection or is set to "0", the default interval will be 30 minutes.
