After configuring rotating datacenter proxy - GB, it is recommended to do a minimum connection test first, and then run the formal task.

Pre-test inspection

• Confirm that the remaining GB traffic is sufficient.
• Confirm that the host, port, username and password are complete.
• Confirm that the protocol selected by the third-party tool is consistent with the backend.
• If using API, first confirm that the API can return proxy results.

Method 1: cURL test

1. Select the parameters in the background.
2. Copy the cURL example generated by the page.
3. Executed from the command line.
4. View the returned IP and region.

curl -x username:[email protected]:1288 http://ipinfo.io/json

Method 2: Browser test

1. Add new configuration in the browser proxy extension.
2. Fill in the host, port, username and password.
3. Select HTTP or SOCKS5 protocol.
4. Open the IP query page to confirm the export change.

• The exit IP is different from the real IP of the machine.
• The region and background selection are generally consistent.
