Monolith Proxy

In the "System Settings" section, open the "Network" tab, and then, when you highlight the active connection, click "Advanced". Here, in the "Proxies" tab, tick only the HTTP proxy if you do not intend to use other types of proxies temporarily. Enter the address of your proxy server and its port in the designated fields and click "OK".

A proxy server port on a TV refers to a specific port number used by a proxy server to communicate with the TV. The proxy server is a computer or device that acts as an intermediary between the TV and external networks or resources, such as the internet. The port number is a unique identifier that directs the communication to the appropriate service or application on the proxy server.

In the context of a TV, a proxy server port is typically used for firmware updates, app store access, or other communication with external servers. The port number is usually provided by the TV manufacturer or the service provider, and it may vary depending on the specific model or firmware version of the TV.

To use a proxy server with your TV, you will need to configure the TV's network settings to use the proxy server's IP address and port number. This can usually be done through the TV's menu or settings, under the network or internet settings section.

It's important to note that using a proxy server with your TV may have security implications, as it can potentially expose your TV and home network to vulnerabilities.

To configure a proxy manually, you'll need to access the settings of the application or software you're using that requires a proxy server. The steps to configure a proxy manually will vary depending on the application or software. Here are some general steps for common applications:

For Web Browsers:

1. Open your web browser (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Edge).
2. Click on the menu button (usually three horizontal lines or three dots) and select "Settings" or "Options."
3. Look for a section related to "Network settings," "Proxy settings," or "Connections."
4. In the proxy settings, you'll find fields for the proxy server address and port. Enter the proxy server address and port provided by your proxy service.
5. If your proxy server requires authentication, enter the username and password in the respective fields.
6. Save your changes and close the settings window.

For Windows:

1. Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog.
2. Type "inetcpl" and press Enter to open the Internet Properties window.
3. Go to the "Connections" tab, and click on "LAN settings."
4. In the LAN settings, check the box next to "Use a proxy server for your LAN" if you have a proxy server configured. Enter the proxy server address and port in the appropriate fields.
5. If your proxy server requires authentication, check the box next to "Bypass proxy server for local addresses" and enter the local IP address of the website you want to access (e.g., "127.0.0.1" for localhost).
6. Save your changes and close the Internet Properties window.

For macOS:

1. Click the Apple menu and select "System Preferences."
2. Click "Network."
3. Select the network connection you want to configure the proxy settings for (e.g., Wi-Fi, Ethernet).
4. Click the "Advanced" button.
5. Go to the "Proxies" tab.
6. Check the box next to "HTTP proxy" or "HTTPS proxy" if you have a proxy server configured. Enter the proxy server address and port in the appropriate fields. 7. If your proxy server requires authentication, click the "Security" tab and check the box next to "Proxy server is secure." Enter the username and password in the respective fields.
8. Save your changes and close the Network preferences window.

It is not possible to set up a proxy connection in the program itself. That is, you should configure it either through the regular settings of Windows, or by using third-party utilities to forward traffic (e.g., through ProxyCap).

There are lots of ways to use them. For example, you can swap your real IP address location for an American one, thus getting the opportunity to watch Netflix at a bargain price. Or you can set up parsing traffic through a proxy to test the security of your web applications. Or you can create a proxy server on your local network that allows traffic through and blocks requests to certain sites.
