In http proxy, both tunnel proxy ip and dynamic proxy ip are used for proxy ip purpose. However, tunnel proxy ip and proxy ip have different working principles and applicable scenarios, so which one is better depends on specific needs.
1. Tunnel Proxy
Tunnel Proxy is a proxy method that forwards user requests to the target server through a virtual channel and returns the response to the user. Unlike traditional proxies, tunnel proxies do not modify or cache requests when forwarding them, but directly pass data traffic to the target server and then return the response to the user.
The advantage of a tunnel proxy is a fixed server IP address that is set up once and automatically forwarded and replaced. It is fast and highly secure. Because the tunnel proxy does not modify the data, the probability of being identified by the target server is low. It is more suitable for scenarios such as accessing external network resources and visiting overseas websites.
2. Dynamic direct/connect proxy IP
Proxy IP is a method of using a proxy server to request the target server instead of the user. With the help of a proxy server, users can hide their real IP address through the proxy IP. The proxy server receives the user's request, modifies it to the proxy server's IP address, and forwards it to the target server. When the target server returns a response, the proxy server sends the response back to the user. The user sees the proxy server's IP address instead of the real IP address.
The advantage of proxy IP is that it is easy to use. Through API extraction, batch IP address changes can be achieved, so it is suitable for some scenarios where IP addresses need to be changed frequently. After each IP expires, the program automatically obtains a new IP and uses it again.
3. Which one is better, tunnel proxy or direct/connected proxy IP?
In summary, tunnel proxy and proxy IP each have their own advantages and disadvantages, and which one is better depends on specific needs. If you need to quickly access external network resources and visit websites, it is recommended to choose a tunnel proxy; if you need to frequently change IP addresses or collect data in batches, it is recommended to choose a proxy IP.
No matter which method you choose, you need to pay attention to some precautions, such as ensuring the stability and security of the proxy server, using the proxy server reasonably, etc. Because improper use of proxy tools may cause some security issues, such as privacy leakage, account blocking, etc. Therefore, when choosing an IP resource service provider, we prefer those with industry reputation, long operation time, and technical capabilities.
