Zig Proxy

Building a chain of proxies in Selenium involves configuring a WebDriver with a Proxy object that represents a chain of proxies. Here's an example using Python with Selenium and the Chrome WebDriver:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.proxy import Proxy, ProxyType

# Create a Proxy object for the first proxy in the chain
proxy1 = Proxy()
proxy1.http_proxy = "http://proxy1.example.com:8080"
proxy1.ssl_proxy = "http://proxy1.example.com:8080"
proxy1.proxy_type = ProxyType.MANUAL

# Create a Proxy object for the second proxy in the chain
proxy2 = Proxy()
proxy2.http_proxy = "http://proxy2.example.com:8080"
proxy2.ssl_proxy = "http://proxy2.example.com:8080"
proxy2.proxy_type = ProxyType.MANUAL

# Create a Proxy object for the final proxy in the chain
proxy3 = Proxy()
proxy3.http_proxy = "http://proxy3.example.com:8080"
proxy3.ssl_proxy = "http://proxy3.example.com:8080"
proxy3.proxy_type = ProxyType.MANUAL

# Create a chain of proxies
proxies_chain = f"{proxy1.proxy, proxy2.proxy, proxy3.proxy}"

# Set up ChromeOptions with the proxy chain
chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
chrome_options.add_argument(f"--proxy-server={proxies_chain}")

# Create the WebDriver with ChromeOptions
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=chrome_options)

# Now you can use the driver with the proxy chain for your automation tasks
driver.get("https://example.com")

# Close the browser window when done
driver.quit()

In this example:

Three Proxy objects (proxy1, proxy2, and proxy3) are created, each representing a different proxy in the chain. You need to replace the placeholder URLs (http://proxy1.example.com:8080, etc.) with the actual proxy server URLs.

The ProxyType.MANUAL option is used to indicate that the proxy settings are configured manually.

The proxies_chain variable is a comma-separated string representing the chain of proxies.

The --proxy-server option is added to ChromeOptions to specify the proxy chain.

A Chrome WebDriver instance is created with the configured ChromeOptions.

Selenium WebDriver does not directly create an Internet Explorer (IE) session but instead launches the IE browser. This is because WebDriver is designed to interact with the browser through its WebDriver API, which is different from the native browser session.

When you use Selenium WebDriver with Internet Explorer, it starts the IE browser in a new window, and then you can interact with the browser using the WebDriver API. This allows you to perform actions like navigating to a web page, finding elements, and interacting with them.

It's important to note that Internet Explorer is no longer recommended for use in production environments, and Microsoft has discontinued its development. Microsoft recommends using Microsoft Edge as a more modern and secure alternative. If you need to use Edge with Selenium, you can follow the same approach as with Internet Explorer, using the ChromeDriverService and ChromeOptions classes.

An access point (AP) is a device that creates a wireless local area network (WLAN) and allows devices to connect to a wired network. Proxy settings on an access point refer to the configuration of the AP to use a proxy server for internet traffic.

A proxy on an access point serves the following purposes:

1. Anonymity: By routing internet traffic through a proxy server, the AP can help conceal the identity and location of devices connected to the network. This can be useful in situations where anonymity is desired or required.

2. Content filtering: A proxy server can be configured to block or allow access to specific websites or content based on predefined rules. This can be helpful for organizations that want to control and monitor the internet usage of their users.

3. Bandwidth management: Using a proxy server, an access point can limit or prioritize the bandwidth for specific applications or users. This can help manage network resources and ensure fair usage.

4. Caching: Proxy servers can cache frequently accessed content, reducing the amount of data that needs to be downloaded from the internet. This can improve performance and reduce bandwidth usage.

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 ps4 settings, go to "Network" and click on "Establish an Internet connection". In the window that appears, select "How to connect to the network" and check your option: Wi-Fi or Lan. When selecting the connection method, check "Special", and when setting the IP address, click on "Automatic". After that, under "Proxy Server", select "Use", enter the IP address, the port of the proxy server and press "Enter".
