To add a proxy server, click either Proxy Servers in the Profile menu or the corresponding item on the toolbar:
WARNING! If you were using proxies before you installed Proxifier you should disable any built-in proxy settings. Your applications should then be configured to connect “directly” to the Internet (rather than through proxies). |
This will open a dialog window where you can add, edit or remove proxy servers and proxy chains used by Proxifier. If several proxy servers are specified, you can create a proxy chain.
The order of the proxy servers in the list is not relevant. You can sort the list by address, port and type (protocol).
To add a proxy server, click the Add button, which will open the form where you can specify the details of the proxy server:
Address
The address of the proxy server can be a hostname or IPv4/IPv6 address.
Port
The port number to connect to the proxy server (usually 1080, 80, 8080, 3128, etc.)
Protocol
The protocol used by the proxy server. Proxifier supports four types of protocols:
WARNING!
Many HTTP proxy servers do not support SSL tunneling; therefore, they cannot be used as HTTPS. If an HTTP proxy works properly in the browser but fails in Proxifier, it most likely means that SSL support is unavailable. You can also check the proxy with the Proxy Checker tool (Windows only).
Authentication and Options
The options available depend on the proxy server protocol.
