EarthLink Proxy

To specify the data of a proxy server in the Opera browser, you need to follow the algorithm below:

Open the browser.
Click on the Opera icon in the upper left corner.
Go to "Settings".
Select the "Advanced" option.
Scroll down to the "System" tab.
Click "Open proxy settings for computer".
Click on "Network settings".
Activate the "Use a proxy server" option.
In the tab that opens, specify the IP address of the proxy server. The address must be entered in the field of the protocol to which the proxy server belongs. You can get this information from your proxy provider. Click "OK" to save your settings.

A proxy server acts as an intermediary between the client and the requested Internet resource. It is assigned the role of a kind of gateway or filter, which is responsible for submitting a request, receiving the required information and providing it to the user. The proxy server, if necessary, can make changes in incoming and outgoing data, the nature of which will depend on the type of proxy and its settings.

To add a site to proxy exceptions, you need to configure your proxy settings to bypass the proxy for specific domains or websites. The process may vary depending on the browser or operating system you are using. Here, I will provide instructions for popular web browsers:

- Open Google Chrome.
- Click on the three dots (⠇) in the top right corner of the Chrome window.
- Select "Settings" from the dropdown menu.
- Scroll down and click on "Advanced" at the bottom of the page.
- Under the "System" section, click on "Open proxy settings."
- In the Windows Settings window, go to the "Exceptions" tab.
- Click on the "Add" button.
- Enter the domain or IP address of the site you want to add to the exceptions list in the "Address" field.
- Click "OK" to save the exception.

Mozilla Firefox:
- Open Mozilla Firefox.
- Click on the three lines (⠇) in the top right corner of the Firefox window.
- Select "Options" or "Preferences" from the dropdown menu.
- Go to the "General" tab, and click on "Settings..." in the "Network Proxy" section.
- In the Connection Settings window, click on "Settings..." under the "Dial-up networking" section.
- In the Internet Properties window, go to the "Security" tab.
- Click on "Restricted Sites" and then "Sites."
- Click on "Add" and enter the domain or IP address of the site you want to add to the exceptions list.
- Click "Close" and then "OK" to save the exception.

Install the Nginx web server and disable the virtual tail. Next, in the /etc/nginx/sites-available directory, create a reverse-proxy.conf file. The file should be saved after completing the installation and quit the editor by typing "wq. You can send information to other servers by using the ngx_http_proxy_module in the terminal. Now activate the directives and test Nginx and the reverse proxy.

There are several options for its use: bypassing the blocking of websites, shopping in foreign online stores at regional (local) prices, access to a full library of media content, hiding your real IP-address.
