Configure Proxy
To ensure smooth functionality, our proxies operate through port forwarding, which requires our dedicated application. Follow this step-by-step guide to configure and manage your proxies effectively.
1. Accessing the Proxy List
Open the 9Proxy app
Navigate to the Proxy List section.
Browse the available proxies and select one that fits your needs. If you want more options, click Refresh List to load additional proxies.
Note: You can configure your proxy with precise geolocation targeting by selecting specific countries, cities, states, ZIP codes, or ISPs. This ensures optimal performance and accuracy for your use case.
2. Configuring Proxy Forwarding
Tip: Before proceeding, ensure that you have configured a valid port range. This allows proper allocation and management of proxy connections within your setup.
To use a proxy, you must first forward it to a designated port.
Right-click on your selected proxy OR click the icon
→ Choose one of these options:
Forward to Port
Assigns a proxy to a single port.
Forward to Multiple Ports
Assigns multiple proxies to multiple ports.
Forward to Free Ports
Automatically assigns proxies to unused ports in your range.
Forward to All Ports
Assigns proxies to all ports in your range (including used and free ports).
Forward to Configured Ports
Assigns proxies only to pre-configured ports.
You must configure the port settings before selecting this option.
After successfully forwarding proxies to ports, navigate to the Forwarding List section on the left side. Here, you will find detailed information about the proxies you port-forwarded, their assigned ports, and their current status.
NOTE
To verify that your proxy is active and functioning correctly, click Test next to the proxy entry to perform a real-time status check. If the test is successful, your proxy is ready to use.
Once confirmed, copy the local IP and port and configure it in your proxy-supported software, browser, or extension.
Proxy Authentication
By default, your proxies can connect directly through local ports without requiring username and password authentication.
If you prefer to restrict proxy access or use credential-based login, you can enable Proxy Authentication in the Forwarding List.
3. Forwarding List
After successfully forwarding proxies to ports, navigate to the Forwarding List section on the left side. Here, you will find detailed information about the proxies you port-forwarded, their assigned ports, and their current status.
4. Test Proxies with Proxy Check
The Proxy Check feature allows you to test proxies directly inside the 9Proxy App - quickly and accurately.
To run a test:
Click the three-dot icon next to the proxy you want to test.
Select Proxy Check.
Choose a Lookup Channel.
Click Test to confirm that your proxy is working properly before starting your tasks.
Result: If the test passes, your proxy is successfully connected and ready to use.
Click the Copy icon next to any proxy you want to use to quickly copy its localhost, port, username, and password (if available). If you need all of them, simply click Copy All to copy every proxy’s details at once.
5. Managing Your Proxies Efficiently
Today List
The Today List displays the proxies you have used in the last 24 hours since you initially forwarded them to a port. If any of these proxies become active again during this period, you can continue using them at no additional cost.
To verify their current availability, click Test to check their real-time status.
After 24 hours, proxies that are no longer in use will automatically be removed from the list.
Favorites
The Favorites feature allows you to save the IP addresses you prefer, making it easier to find and access them later.
How to Save Proxies to Favorites
Open the Proxy List or Today List in your dashboard.
Click the "☆" (star) icon next to the proxy you want to save.
Once marked as a favorite, the star will turn yellow (★), indicating the proxy is now in your Favorites list.
