Proxy\Socks

 
 
A proxy(socks) server is a system or router that provides a gateway between users and the internet. Therefore, it helps prevent cyber attackers from entering a private network. It is a server, referred to as an “intermediary” because it goes between end-users and the web pages they visit online.
 
When a computer connects to the internet, it uses an IP address. This is similar to your home’s street address, telling incoming data where to go and marking outgoing data with a return address for other devices to authenticate. A proxy server is essentially a computer on the internet that has an IP address of its own.
 
By default, AntDM automatically sets own preferred network settings.
If you want to configure a Proxy or Socks for all network requests, you can configure it on this "General" tab
 
 
If you need to assign a proxy server only for specific sites, then use "Sites" tab.
