Ubuntu

Ubuntu is an open-source software operating system on Linux for enterprise servers, desktops, the cloud, and IoT.

To set up a system-wide network proxy, follow the steps below:

Step 1. Download and install Ubuntu Desktop.

Step 2. Find Settings from the Ubuntu launcher and go to the Network tab.

Step 3. Once you click on Network, it will open up a new dialog. From the three options, choose Network Proxy.

Step 4. Select Manual to configure proxy settings. Next, several text boxes will pop up from which you can set HTTP, HTTPS, or SOCKS proxy. Fill in the following information:

Proxy: dc.oxylabs.io

Port: 8001

For the pay-per-IP subscription method, the port number corresponds to the order of IP addresses in your list. Therefore, port 8001 will use the first IP address.

For the pay-per-traffic subscription, port 8001 will randomly select an IP address but will remain consistent for the session duration.

You can also specify the proxy's geo-location within the user authentication string, such as user-USERNAME-country-US:PASSWORD, which will connect to a US proxy. Refer to our documentation for more information.

Step 5. Close the Network Proxy window. The changes will automatically be saved, and the system-wide proxy will be activated.

That’s all! You’ve successfully integrated your Oxylabs proxies.
