# FoxyProxy

[FoxyProxy](https://getfoxyproxy.org/) is a third-party extension that enables configuring proxies directly for Chrome, Firefox, and other Chromium-based browsers. Follow the guides below to configure FoxyProxy with Oxylabs [**Residential Proxies**](https://oxylabs.io/products/residential-proxy-pool).

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Add Residential Proxies

In the **Proxies** tab, click the **Add** button located on the left to open proxy settings. Then, fill in your Residential Proxies configuration:

**Type**: `HTTP`, `HTTPS`, or `SOCKS5`

**Hostname**: `pr.oxylabs.io`

**Port**: `7777`

**Username:** `customer-USERNAME`

**Password:** `PASSWORD`

{% hint style="info" %}
You can also use country-specific entries to acquire a desired country exit node with a sticky session. For example, to use a US exit node, enter `us-pr.oxylabs.io` next to **Host or IP Address** and `10001` next to **Port**. You can find a complete list of location-specific information in our [documentation](https://developers.oxylabs.io/proxies/residential-proxies/location-settings).
