What is an IPv4 proxy

An IPv4 proxy is a dedicated IP address on a data center server that is assigned exclusively to you. The address is tied to you for the entire rental period: it does not change on its own and is not assigned to other clients. This is why such proxies are called static and dedicated.


How to connect to it

The proxy operates using two protocols — HTTP(S) and SOCKS5, each on its own port: 50100 and 50101. You do not need to choose a protocol when ordering, both are available from day one.


You can connect in two ways: by login and password or by IP address through a whitelist. These are not mutually exclusive options — they work simultaneously. The login and password are the same for the entire account: the same for all your orders and all formats.


Where to find the address, ports, and login details — in the article Where to find proxies, ports, and authorization data for IPv4.


What you pay for

Payment is for the address itself and the rental period: the amount of traffic does not affect the cost. However, traffic is not unlimited: the load is limited by the Fair Usage Policy — by default, this is 100 simultaneous connections per address. More details — in the article Fair Usage Policy: what it is and how it works. The channel speed is up to 1 Gbps.


You choose the country when ordering in the "Location" field — the full list of available locations is visible there. How to place an order is described in the article How to place an order for IPv4.


Downtime insurance

For IPv4, a free 100% Uptime option is available: if the server with your address stops responding, the address is automatically replaced, and no reconfiguration is needed. The option is included when placing an order or added to already purchased proxies upon request to support. Of all our formats, it is only available for IPv4 and ISP. More details — in the article Proxies with 100% Uptime.


What happens to the rental period

Three days before the rental ends, the proxy gets the status "Ends", and on the "Term ends IP" tile — their quantity. You can renew manually or enable auto-renewal so that the addresses are not released. When renewing, the IP address remains the same, only the end date changes.


If a specific address does not suit you — for example, the geolocation is incorrect — you can submit a replacement request in your personal account.
