What is Socks5 Proxy

Hey guys, today let's talk about something kind of cool - Socks5 Proxy. What the heck, you may ask? Don't worry, let me explain it to you slowly.
Socks5 proxy, in simple terms, is a network protocol that can be used to establish a proxy connection between a client and a server. It is the fifth version of the Socks protocol, which is more secure and reliable than its predecessors and supports UDP and authentication.

Socks5 proxy in QQ

Well, after talking about what is Socks5 proxy, now let's take a look at its application in QQ. You know, sometimes when we use QQ, we will encounter some restrictions, such as some LAN environments can not be logged in QQ, can not send files, etc. This time, the Socks5 proxy can come in handy! At this time, Socks5 proxy can come in handy!
By using Socks5 proxy, we can bypass these restrictions and let QQ travel freely through the network like flying. Whether you are in a school, a company or any other environment with more restrictions, as long as you configure the Socks5 proxy, QQ will be able to smoothly establish a connection with the server and realize unobstructed communication.

How to Configure Socks5 Proxy

Now let's see how to configure the Socks5 proxy so that QQ can use it without any problems.
First, you need to find a server that can provide Socks5 proxy service, which can be built by you or provided by a third party. Then, you need to get the server's IP address and port number, which are usually told to you by the server provider.
Next, let's look at the specific configuration steps.

Step 1: Open QQ Settings

First, open your QQ client and click on the "Settings" button in the top left corner. This will bring up a menu where you need to select the "Settings" option.

Step 2: Select Network and Transport

In the "Settings" screen, you will see a list of options, find the "Network and Transmission" option and click on it.

Step 3: Configure the proxy

In the "Network and Transport" interface, you will see a "Proxy" option, click on it.
In the Proxy Settings screen, you need to select "Use Socks5 proxy" and enter the IP address and port number of the server. If the server requires authentication, you will also need to enter your username and password.
Finally, click OK to save the configuration.

code example

Finally, let's take a look at some code examples to help you better understand the use of the Socks5 proxy.

ipipgothon
import socket
def connect_proxy(proxy_host, proxy_port, target_host, target_port):
proxy_socket = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
proxy_socket.connect((proxy_host, proxy_port))
Send Socks5 handshake request
proxy_socket.sendall(b'x05x01x00')
Receive Socks5 handshake response
response = proxy_socket.recv(2)
version, method = response
if version == 5 and method == 0.
Send Socks5 connection request
target_ip = socket.gethostbyname(target_host)
target_port_bytes = target_port.to_bytes(2, 'big')
request = b'x05x01x00x03' + bytes([len(target_host)]) + target_host.encode() + target_port_bytes
proxy_socket.sendall(request)
Receive the Socks5 connection response
response = proxy_socket.recv(10)
version, status = response[:2]
if version == 5 and status == 0.
print('Successfully established Socks5 proxy connection!)
Interacting with data...
proxy_socket.close()
print('Successfully established Socks5 proxy connection!
print('Failed to establish Socks5 proxy connection!)
print('Failed to establish Socks5 proxy connection!
print('Unable to establish Socks5 proxy connection!)
if __name__ == '__main__'.
proxy_host = '127.0.0.1'
proxy_port = 1080
target_host = 'example.com'
target_port = 80
connect_proxy(proxy_host, proxy_port, target_host, target_port)

The above is a simple Socks5 proxy connection example, you can modify and extend it according to your needs.

summarize

Hey guys, today we have explored the Socks5 proxy in QQ together and learned how to configure and use it. By utilizing Socks5 proxy wisely, we can easily solve all kinds of problems with QQ in restricted environments.
