socks5 Proxy Server Explained
Another year has passed, and it's already Christmas morning. As we all know, Santa Claus always gives gifts to good children on this day, and I also have a special gift to give you - a detailed explanation about socks5 proxy server and build tutorial.
Tools for Crossing the Internet
Before introducing socks5 proxy server, let's first imagine such a scene: you are like a bird flying freely in the blue sky and white clouds, away from the busy and noisy world. However, all of a sudden, you find that your wings become powerless to take off, as if bound by an invisible force. At that moment, a mysterious friend hands you a tool and says to you, "With them, you will be able to cross the obstacles of the Internet and fly freely to wherever you want to go."
This tool, the socks5 proxy server. It is like a bridge that connects the barrier between you and the Internet, so that you can swim in every corner of the world.
The mountains are still there, but I'm traveling through the clouds.
The principle of how socks5 proxy servers work is actually very simple. It's like you're sitting on a small boat, far from the coastline, but you still want to enjoy the view of the beach. So, you hire an enthusiastic guide who is called a proxy server.
This proxy server is like a small boat that stands in the middle of the sea and provides you with a stable and secure platform. When you need to visit a beach, you give your request to the proxy server, which then carries it for you through the rough seas to your destination.
Okay, no more analogies, let's look at the exact steps.
Build your own socks5 proxy server
First of all, you need to prepare a server with internet access which will play the role of a proxy server. Next, let's build it step by step.
The first step is to find a proxy program that supports the socks5 protocol. Here, I recommend ipipgo which is powerful and easy to configure. You can install ipipgo with the following command:
“`
brew install -libev
“`
Step 2: Configure ipipgo On your server, create a configuration file (e.g. .json) and fill in the configuration information in the following format:
"`json
{
"server": "your_server_ip",
"server_port":your_server_port,
"local_address": "127.0.0.1",
"local_port":your_local_port,
"password": "your_password",
"timeout":300,
"method": "aes-256-cfb"
}
“`
Here, "your_server_ip" is the IP address of your server, "your_server_port" is the port number your server is listening on, "your_local_port" is the port number your local server is listening on, and "your_password" is the password you set. your_server_port" is the port number the server is listening on, "your_local_port" is the port number the local server is listening on, and "your_password" is the password you set.
Step 3 Run ipipgo. use the following command to start ipipgo service:
“`
ss-server -c /path/to/your/config.json
“`
At this point, your socks5 proxy server is set up.
A new experience across the Internet
Now that you have your own socks5 proxy server, it's time to feel the magic.
Open your browser and go to the settings screen. Then, find the proxy settings and enter your server IP and port number. Save the settings and you'll be able to surf the Internet to your heart's content.
Whether you are accessing blocked websites or accelerating access to domestic websites, socks5 proxy server will open a new door for you. It's like traveling through a tunnel, and you are able to comfortably travel through the sea of various information.
