Rotation involves switching the IP address you're connected to. Since residential and mobile proxies come from real devices, their IPs naturally rotate as these devices can go offline or temporarily lose network coverage.
With SOAX, you can customize the IP rotation to fit your specific requirements, ensuring it's flexible and easy to manage. In your Dashboard, you can see several rotation options, and we will now describe them:
Same IP up to
You can set up the "Same IP up to" rotation, meaning that the IP address will be available for use within the particular time you've specified, assuming it remains online during that time. If the IP goes offline even before the rotation time comes, a new one will automatically be assigned to you.
The lifetime of each IP address is unique.
Same IP up to feature with enabled Bind IP
This feature lets you maintain a connection between your IP address and a specific port for a set duration as long as the IP stays online. Normally, your IP would change if it briefly disconnects or loses connection, even for a moment. However, the Sticky IP feature ensures that this doesn’t occur, keeping your IP stable.
If you activated Bind IP and the address went offline before the rotation time expired, you have to wait for the IP to come online again, or you can change the port number (new port = new IP).
New IP on each request
Rotating - "New IP on each request" means that a fresh IP address is assigned from the proxy server for every request you make. As a result, each new website or page you load will be accessed through a different IP address.
