{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Configure proxy details

Choose a proxy **Protocol** (HTTP, HTTPS, or SOCKS5) and enter your proxy details according to the proxy types listed below.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Note:** Google Chrome does not support SOCKS5 proxy authentication in browser extensions. If you plan to use Oxylabs SOCKS5 proxies, choose the ZeroOmega extension for Mozilla Firefox.
{% endhint %}

<figure><img src="https://63892162-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FzrXw45naRpCZ0Ku9AjY1%2Fuploads%2FcrTSHUVVxrqI1sr3kkeu%2Fzeroomega_proxy%20details.png?alt=media&#x26;token=4ee07e67-b79d-483c-849a-f1717c86688f" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

**Protocol:** `HTTP`, `HTTPS`, or `SOCKS5` (Firefox)

**Server:** `dc.oxylabs.io`

**Port:** `8001`

<figure><img src="https://63892162-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FzrXw45naRpCZ0Ku9AjY1%2Fuploads%2FfiysujZgeU21XMGZEBZL%2Fzeroomega_dc.png?alt=media&#x26;token=813c39f4-6322-48d0-b15c-24ce8800afa2" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

**Pay-per-IP subscription**

The port is the sequential number assigned to an IP address from the proxy list. Thus, port `8001` uses the first IP address from your list. You may also enable proxy IP rotation by setting the port to `8000`.

Additionally, you can choose geo-location, such as the US, by setting the Proxy username to `user-USERNAME-country-US`.

**Pay-per-traffic subscription**

Port `8001` picks a random IP address but stays consistent during a session. Alternatively, you can rotate proxy IPs with each request by using port `8000`.

You can also specify geo-location, for example, the US, by setting the Proxy username to `user-USERNAME-country-US`.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Enter user credentials

To authenticate proxy access, click the **lock icon** next to the proxy port text field. Then, enter your Oxylabs proxy user’s credentials. Use the same **username** and **password** you entered to create a new proxy user in the [Oxylabs dashboard](https://dashboard.oxylabs.io/en/). Finally, click **Save changes**.
