SSH Dynamic Proxy

Proxy servers are of the following types:
FTP proxy designed to send data to FTP servers.
CGI proxy, which is used to browse web services in a browser. You do not need to configure any settings. All actions are performed anonymously. Often such proxies are designed in the form of a page where you have to specify the address of a desired site.
SMTP, POP3 and IMAP proxy are designed for sending and receiving email.
HTTP and HTTPS proxies are for scrolling web services.
Socks proxy are used as an anonymizer. No one will know about the user's actions.

Google Chrome doesn't have a built-in function to work with a proxy server, although there is such an item in the settings. But when you click on it, you are automatically "redirected" to the standard proxy settings in Windows (or any other operating system).

To connect to the Internet through a proxy server, you need to configure your device to use the proxy server for your network connections. Here's how to do it for different operating systems:

For Windows:

1. Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog.
2. Type "inetcpl" (without quotes) and press Enter. This will open the Internet Properties window.
3. Click on the "Connections" tab.
4. Click on "LAN settings" in the bottom right corner.
5. In the "Proxy Server" section, select "Use a proxy server for your LAN" and enter the proxy server address and port number provided by your network administrator or proxy service.
6. Click "OK" and close the Internet Properties window.

For macOS:

1. Open System Preferences.
2. Click on "Network".
3. Select the network connection you are using (e.g., Wi-Fi, Ethernet).
4. Click on the "Proxy" tab.
5. Select "Web Proxy (HTTP)" from the "Proxy Settings" dropdown menu.
6. Enter the proxy server address and port number provided by your network administrator or proxy service.
7. Click "OK" and close the Network preferences.

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.

In the Windows Settings menu, go to "Network and Internet". At the very bottom, on the left side, find the item "Proxy server" and uncheck it so that it is no longer used. It is also desirable to uncheck the item "Automatic detection of parameters" in the section "Automatic configuration". If this is not done, there is a chance that the proxy will continue to be used. Reboot your laptop.
