Basic Concepts of Socks5 Proxy

Basic Concepts of Socks5 Proxy

Hey everyone! Today I'm here to talk to you about the setup and application of Socks5 Proxy QQ. Without further ado, let's start with the basic concept of Socks5 proxy!

Socks5 proxy, as the name suggests, is a network proxy service. It works like a virtual relay station to help us realize the forwarding function of network data transmission. Using Socks5 proxy, we can hide our real IP address to protect our privacy, and we can also access some blocked websites, which is really convenient!

Setting up a Socks5 proxy

Well, after all the theoretical stuff, let's get practical now, how to set up Socks5 proxy!

First, we need to find a good Socks5 proxy server. Here I recommend a very good proxy server - ipipgo. it is an open source proxy software, very stable and reliable.

Before configuring the Socks5 proxy, we need to install the ipipgo client. After installation, we need to configure the address and port number of the proxy server so that we can connect successfully.

# Python Sample Code
import socks

socks.set_default_proxy(socks.SOCKS5, "127.0.0.1", 1080)

In the sample code, we use the socks module in the Python library, by setting the default proxy to the Socks5 proxy, and then specifying the address of the proxy server as "127.0.0.1″ and the port number as 1080.

Proxy QQ with Socks5

Next, I will teach you how to use Socks5 proxy to access QQ. as we all know, QQ is a very popular chatting tool, but sometimes we may encounter some limitations, such as not being able to log in or not being able to send files.

By setting up a Socks5 proxy, we can easily solve these problems. Here is a sample code to access QQ using Socks5 proxy:

# Python Sample Code
import socks
import socket

socks.set_default_proxy(socks.SOCKS5, "127.0.0.1", 1080)
socket.socket = socks.socksocket

# Next you can happily use the Socks5 proxy to access QQ!

What this code does is to replace the socket module in Python with a module for the Socks5 proxy, so that we can use the Socks5 proxy for network communication.

wrap-up

Through the above operation, we successfully set up the Socks5 proxy, and use it to access QQ. Socks5 proxy can not only protect our privacy, but also break through some access restrictions, it is really a small sparrow, all the organs ah!

Of course, we should also pay attention to some problems when using the proxy, such as choosing a reliable proxy server to avoid being cheated; at the same time, for some important accounts, it is not recommended to use the proxy to access, so that it is more secure.
