RTMPdump HTTP Proxy

Every proxy server is of the type 168.1.1.1:8080, where the first part before the colon is the IP address of the remote computer through which the connection is made. The second part (after the colon, in this case 8080) is the port number through which your equipment will connect to that very remote server.

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.

To see the proxy server address on your PS, you need to do the following steps:

Launch PlayStation 4.
In the "Library" category, go to "Settings".
Select "Network.
Click on "Establish an Internet connection.
Select "Use LAN cable" or "Use Wi-Fi". In the second case, select an access point and specify the password. On a new page, select "Special". In categories "IP-address settings", click on the item "Automatic". You do not need to specify the DHCP hostname.
DNS settings - "Automatic".
MTU settings - "Automatic".
In the "Proxy Server" section, click on "Use".
On the page that opens, the data of the proxy server will be specified.

It means organizing a connection through several VPN-servers at once. It is used to protect confidential data as much as possible or to hide one's real IP address. This principle of connection is used, for example, in the TOR-browser. That is, when all traffic is sent immediately through a chain of proxy servers.

If you plan to use a proxy every day, it is recommended to pay attention to paid services. There, the connection is as reliable as possible, with no bandwidth limitations. However, the performance of numerous free proxies is not guaranteed.
