{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Add Datacenter Proxies <a href="#id-2.-add-proxies" id="id-2.-add-proxies"></a>

Scroll down or select the **Proxy** tab to view the proxy settings section and fill out the form as shown below:

**Proxy type**: `HTTP`, `HTTPS`, or `SOCKS5`

**Host**: `dc.oxylabs.io`

**Port**: `8001`

**Proxy username:** `user-USERNAME`

**Proxy password:** `PASSWORD`

{% hint style="success" %}
Append the `user-` part to your username.
{% endhint %}

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Pay-per-IP subscription" %}
The port is the sequential number assigned to an IP address from the [proxy list](https://developers.oxylabs.io/proxies/datacenter-proxies/proxy-list). Thus, port `8001` uses the first IP address from your list. You may also enable [proxy IP rotation](https://developers.oxylabs.io/proxies/datacenter-proxies/ip-control) by setting the port to `8000`.

Furthermore, you can specify the [geo-location](https://developers.oxylabs.io/proxies/datacenter-proxies/select-country), for example, the US, by setting the **Proxy username** to `user-USERNAME-country-US`.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Pay-per-traffic subscription" %}
The port `8001` picks a random IP address but stays consistent during a session. Alternatively, you can [rotate proxy IPs](https://developers.oxylabs.io/proxies/datacenter-proxies/ip-control) with each request by using port `8000`.

If you want to use a specific [geo-location](https://developers.oxylabs.io/proxies/datacenter-proxies/select-country), for example, the US, set the **Proxy username** to `user-USERNAME-country-US`.
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Check your proxy connection <a href="#id-3.-check-proxy-connection" id="id-3.-check-proxy-connection"></a>

You can check if the proxy works correctly by clicking the **Check Proxy** button. You should see the following confirmation (the example below is set up with Residential Proxies):

{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

Once you’re done configuring the browser settings, click **OK** at the bottom. Now, this new profile with proxies should be available in the **Profiles** tab. Launch the browser by simply clicking **Open**.
