What is a SOCKS proxy server?
SOCKS proxy
SOCKS is a networking proxy protocol that enables hosts on one side of a SOCKS server to gain full access to hosts on the other side of the SOCKS server without requiring direct IP-reachability. SOCKS is often used as a network firewall, redirecting connection requests from hosts on opposite sides of a SOCKS server. The SOCKS server authenticates and authorizes requests, establishes a proxy connection, and relays data between hosts.

How to organize proxy chaining for SOCKS
The last proxy in chain for a SOCKS request must be SOCKS
- one SOCKS proxy
- [HTTPS and/or SOCKS proxies] -> SOCKS proxy
Note: You can add as many HTTPS and SOCKS proxies as you want. But the more proxies you have in a chain, the slower it is.
- You can't use an HTTP proxy in such proxy chain as it doesn't support tunneling

Proxy Question
• The proxy software logs show that I am surfing through proxies but the IP address test shows my real IP.
As you may know not all proxies hide an IP address. Transparent proxies are not applicable for private surfing as they do not hide your IP address. If you need to change your IP address, you should use anonymous or high anonymous proxies.
