Rotation helps you deal with the chaotic behavior of proxies. In some cases, Residential and Mobile proxies might lose the connection. SOAX allows you to configure proxies for rotation easily. There are a couple of ways to do that.
By default, our proxies are rotated at a specific time interval that can be set within your dashboard. Your proxies will be rotated at the specified interval unless they go offline before that. This rotation type ensures a highly stable connection because you get a fresh IP every time an old one goes offline. It works best when you need a static IP for 2-5 minutes.
Rotation OFF means that you will be using the same IP for as long as it’s available. The lifetime of each IP is unique. This setting works best when you need your IP to be rotated once every 5-10 minutes.
New IP on each request - means that you will receive new IP from a proxy server for every new request. Every new website or any page you load will be opened via a new IP address. This feature is in beta tests and can be enabled via Support chat or your personal manager.
The Sticky IP session feature ensures that all of your IPs are rotated simultaneously. Even if some of them go offline for a second, you will continue using them until they are rotated at the set time. We do not recommend using the Sticky IP feature for more than 20 minutes. If you set Sticky IP to 1 hour and all of your IPs go offline in 20 minutes, you will have to wait 40 minutes to get fresh IPs. The Sticky IP feature is free and can be enabled via our Support chat.
