Landscape Streaming Proxy

Rotary proxies are proxies that cyclically change their real IP address. This is used to make it harder to track their location. The port usually changes as well. How this happens depends on the software used on the proxy server.

To enable proxies in your MacBook, you need to go to "System Preferences" (from the "Apple" menu), then open "Network", then - specify the type of connection you are using. Then select "Advanced Settings" (can be named as "Advanced"), then click on "Proxy". And then - either set the parameters manually, or specify a configuration file.

A proxy server is responsible for acting as an intermediary between a client and a destination server, handling requests and responses on behalf of the client. Its primary functions include:

1. Access control: A proxy server can be configured to control access to certain resources or websites based on user authentication, IP address, or other criteria. This can help organizations enforce access policies and restrict access to inappropriate or unauthorized content.

2. Caching: Proxy servers can cache frequently accessed content, such as web pages, images, and other files, to improve performance and reduce the load on the destination server. This can result in faster response times for clients accessing previously cached content.

3. Anonymity and privacy: By routing requests through a proxy server, a client can maintain anonymity and privacy. The proxy server's IP address appears as the source of the request, rather than the client's IP address, which can help protect the client's identity and location.

4. Content filtering: Proxy servers can be configured to filter and block certain types of content, such as malicious websites, adult content, or specific keywords. This can help organizations maintain a safe and secure browsing environment for their users.

5. Performance optimization: Proxy servers can optimize performance by compressing data, using content delivery networks (CDNs), or implementing load balancing techniques. This can result in faster load times and improved user experience.

6. Protocol translation: In some cases, proxy servers can translate between different communication protocols, allowing clients to access resources using a different protocol than the destination server supports.

7. Security: Proxy servers can provide additional security by encrypting data transmitted between the client and the destination server, protecting sensitive information from being intercepted or tampered with during transmission.

The main scenarios for using a proxy server: bypassing blocking, hiding the real IP, protection of confidential data when connecting to public WiFi access points, interaction with blocked applications, connection to closed portals, forums (which operate only in one country, region).

It depends on the purpose for which you plan to work with proxies at all. Personally, one is enough for myself. But if you plan to do massive parsing, it may not be enough to have 100 pieces.
