That's it. You're now using Enterprise Dedicated Datacenter Proxies.
Using whitelisted IPs

After saving the changes, open the extension window and connect to the newly created proxy.
Global bypass list
If you don't want to use proxies when accessing specific websites, you can add them to the bypass list. Open the extension, click Manage proxies, and then open the Global Bypass List.

After saving the changes, disconnect and reconnect the proxy to enable the bypass list.
