An overseas residential IP is an overseas residential network address obtained through a proxy service provider, which can be used in many applications, such as web crawlers, data collection, advertising, etc. Among the types of overseas residential IPs, static IP and dynamic IP are two common types, and they have some differences. In this article, we will introduce the types of overseas residential IPs and the differences between static IP and dynamic IP.
Static IP and dynamic IP refer to the different duration and allocation methods of overseas residential IP. Static IP is an IP address fixedly assigned to the client device by the network service provider. Once assigned, the address will not change. Dynamic IP is an IP address dynamically assigned to the client device by the network service provider from the IP address pool. The allocation time may be only a few hours, days or weeks. After the allocation, it will be reallocated to other devices.
The choice between static and dynamic IP depends on the needs of the application. If you need to run server programs on the device, such as in website hosting, a static IP address is necessary because it guarantees that the device has a fixed identity on the Internet and can be accessed through a specific address. However, static IPs can also become targets of cyber attacks, so security measures need to be implemented to protect the device.
Dynamic IP is suitable for devices that need to transmit a large amount of data, because the IP address assigned each time is different, which can avoid being identified as regular traffic by the target website. However, in some applications, dynamic IP may cause some problems, such as the need to bind a domain name in website hosting, in which case a static IP address is required.
In short, static IP and dynamic IP are two different types of overseas residential IP. They differ in duration and allocation method and are suitable for different application scenarios. When choosing an overseas residential IP type, you need to make a choice based on the characteristics and needs of the application to achieve the best results.
