Choosing the right proxy mode is crucial for optimizing your internet activities, whether it’s web scraping, marketing, or secure browsing. Our data center proxies provide two distinct modes: Rotating and Fixed. Here’s what you need to know to make an informed choice:
Fixed (static) mode
Fixed proxies, also known as static or dedicated proxies, offer a single, unchanging IP address. This mode is ideal for users who require consistent access from the same IP, making it easier to maintain sessions and avoid disruptions. These IPs are also less likely to be flagged during data scraping, as their consistent presence is perceived as less suspicious by servers.
IPv4 Fixed Mode: IPs remain static with no rotation.
IPv6 Fixed Mode (no rotation): IPs remain static as long as the rotation interval is set to the 'No rotation' option.
IPv6 Fixed Mode (with rotation): If a rotation schedule is set IPs will be cycled through the entire IPv6 subnet attached to the port at the specified intervals (e.g., every 10 minutes). Available rotation intervals:
10 minutes
1 hour
24 hours
Rotating mode
Rotating proxies allow access to a range of IP addresses through a single port, enabling IP rotation at fixed or random intervals. This mode provides enhanced anonymity and security, making it perfect for tasks that require frequent IP changes to avoid detection. Available rotation intervals:
No rotation
10 minutes
1 hour
24 hours
IPv6 Rotating Mode: A new IP is generated randomly for each request, providing maximum anonymity and flexibility.
IPv4 Rotating mode: Not available
