Working principle and implementation method of global proxy IP

1. What is global proxy IP?

Global proxy IP is a network proxy setting that allows all network traffic to be transferred through a proxy server. Unlike specific application or browser proxies, global proxy IP applies to the entire operating system. Whether browsing the web, downloading files or performing other network operations, all traffic will pass through the proxy server.

2. Working principle of global proxy IP

Global proxy IP redirects all network requests to the proxy server by configuring proxy settings at the operating system level. After receiving the request, the proxy server communicates with the target server on behalf of the client and returns the result to the client. This process has the following key steps:

Request redirection: The client sends a network request, and the operating system redirects the request to the proxy server according to the configuration.

Proxy server processing: The proxy server receives the request and establishes a connection with the target server on behalf of the client.

Data transmission: The target server responds to the request, and the proxy server transmits the data back to the client.

This way of working ensures that all network traffic passes through the proxy server, thereby achieving functions such as privacy protection and breaking through geographical restrictions.

3.Advantages of global proxy IP

Privacy protection: Hide the user's real IP address through the proxy server to prevent tracking and monitoring.

Break through geographical restrictions: Access websites and services restricted by geographical location, such as foreign streaming platforms.

Improve access speed: Some proxy servers provide optimized network paths, reduce latency and increase access speed.

Unified management: No need to configure a proxy for each application separately, which facilitates unified management and maintenance.

4. How to implement global proxy IP

The method of implementing global proxy IP varies depending on the operating system. The following are the specific steps to configure a global proxy IP in Windows, macOS, and Linux systems.

Configure global proxy IP in Windows system

Open Settings: Click the "Start" button and select "Settings".

Network and Internet: In the settings interface, select "Network and Internet".

Proxy settings: Select "Proxy" in the menu on the left, and then configure the proxy server address and port on the right.

Manually set the proxy: Enable the "Use proxy server" option and enter the proxy server address and port number.

Save settings: Click the "Save" button to complete the configuration.

Configure global proxy IP in macOS system

Open System Preferences: Click the Apple menu and select "System Preferences".

Network: Select "Network" in System Preferences.

Select network connection: Select the currently used network connection (such as WiFi or Ethernet) on the left.

Advanced settings: Click the "Advanced" button in the lower right corner to enter the advanced settings interface.

Proxy settings: Select the "Proxy" tab, check "Web Proxy (HTTP)" or other proxy types, and enter the proxy server address and port number.

Save settings: Click "OK" and then click "Apply" to save changes.

Configure global proxy IP in Linux system

Open the terminal: Open a terminal window in the system.

Edit the configuration file: Use a text editor (such as nano or vi) to edit the network configuration file. 

Save and exit: Save the file and exit the editor.

Restart network services: Restart network services or restart the computer for the changes to take effect.

Set up a global proxy on the router: In a home or business network, users can set up a global proxy on the router so that all network requests are forwarded through the proxy server. This allows all devices in the home or business to use the proxy server for network communication.
