Protocols

Static Residential (ISP) Pay/GB proxies support HTTP, HTTPS, and SOCKS5 formats

HTTP

Here is a cURL example for the HTTP protocol:

curl -x "http://Username:[email protected]:10001" "https://ip.decodo.com/json"

HTTPS

Using this protocol will encrypt your connection. Here is a cURL example for the HTTPS protocol:

curl -x "https://Username:[email protected]:10001" "https://ip.decodo.com/json"

SOCKS5

Both UDP and TCP connections are supported via SOCKS5 with the ISP Pay/GB proxies.

To use the SOCKS5 protocol you simply need to specify that in the tool or language you use. For example, this is a cURL command using SOCKS5:

curl -x "socks5h://Username:[email protected]:10001" "https://ip.decodo.com/json"

The only difference between an HTTP cURL command is the socks5h:// (mind the letter h, as it specifies that hostnames are not resolved locally) added before the endpoint.
