Lighttpd Proxy

On smartphones, when a proxy is turned on, the corresponding indicator (the "VPN" icon) appears in the status bar. In Windows you have to go to "Settings", open "Network and Internet". Under "Proxy Server", if the item "Manual" is activated, it means that the proxy is engaged right now.

To log in to your proxy, you will need to provide the required authentication credentials in the proxy settings of your client. The process varies depending on the type of client you are using.

For web browsers, you can usually find the proxy settings in the browser's options or preferences menu. Look for the "Connections" or "Network" section, and find the "Proxy" or "LAN settings" subsection. Enter the proxy address and port, and choose the appropriate proxy type (HTTP, HTTPS, or SOCKS). If your proxy requires authentication, you can typically enter your username and password in the appropriate fields.

For system-wide proxy settings on Windows, macOS, or Linux, you can use the network settings in the control panel or system preferences. Enter the proxy address and port, and choose the appropriate proxy type (HTTP, HTTPS, or SOCKS). If your proxy requires authentication, you can usually enter your username and password in the appropriate fields.

For applications or software that require a proxy, check the application's documentation or settings menu to see if it allows you to configure a proxy server. If authentication is needed, you'll typically find fields for entering your username and password.

In Windows, proxy settings for local connections are made through the "Network and Sharing Center" (from the "Control Panel"). You need to select "Browser Properties", then go to "Connections" and click on "Network Setting". And there you can set either the script or the parameters for the proxy.

You need to open the settings menu, go to "Data and disk", and then - "Proxy settings". There you can enter the address, port number of the intermediate server, as well as username and password for authorization (if necessary).

Common users can use proxies to bypass blocking, to protect their personal data and to hide their real IP address or data about the equipment they use. But network administrators use them to analyze network traffic and test web applications.
