Connection and proxy formats

To connect to ISP proxies, use:

• proxy IP address;
• port;
• username;
• password.

Two authentication methods are available:

• username and password;
• IP whitelist.

Both methods can be used at the same time. For more information about connecting with an IP whitelist, see IP whitelist

Basic format

ISP proxies are displayed as a string containing the address, port, username, and password.
By default, the CREDENTIAL FORMAT field uses:
domain:port:username:password

The connection details format can be changed through the CREDENTIAL FORMAT list.
Commonly used options are available:
domain:port:username:password
domain:port@username:password
username:password:domain:port
username:password@domain:port

The format names use domain, but for ISP proxies an IP address is displayed in its place. For connection purposes, this is the same part of the string: the proxy server address can be specified as a domain name or an IP address.

If you need a different format, you can use the free Proxy Formatter.
