TabSentry - Proxies

Introduction

You can use proxies within the Tasks module in TabSentry. When you add proxies you can assign them to your Tasks.

Setup & Recommendations

• Different types of proxies work on various sites! If you need help deciding which proxies to use, consult with a cook group such as AYCD Pro. 

Adding Proxies

1. Navigate to the Proxies tab within TabSentry.

2. Click the Create button. This will open a dialog for you to input your proxies.

3. By default, Proxies are created to the All Category. You can override this and specify a category name to have your Proxies created in or use the dropdown to assign them to an existing category.

4. Once you have finished inputting your proxies, you can click on Save, and you will see your proxies in the Proxies table.

Testing & Copying Proxies

1. Navigate to the Proxies tab within TabSentry.

2. Select the Proxies from the table that you want the test.

3. Use the Target dropdown to specify which website you want to test your proxies on. If the website you want to test is not listed in the dropdown menu, select Custom and input a URL to test them on any website. 

4. Choose which test you want to use on your proxies. Ping is the most commonly used testing type.

5. After testing your proxies, their speed will be displayed under the Page Load (ms) column.

6. You can use the Delete Dead Proxies option to remove any proxies that have timed out or have connection issues.

7. You can use the Delete Slow Proxies option to remove any proxies that are not fast enough for your use case. After selecting the option, specify a maximum acceptable ping in milliseconds. Any proxies testing speeds above the ping you specify will be removed.

8. After you have tested your proxies and filtered them out, if you want to use them outside of TabSentry, use the Copy to Clipboard button under Options or by selecting your proxies, right-clicking, and choosing the Copy to Clipboard option to copy your proxies to your clipboard.

9. Use the Test Localhost button to test the speed of your local network.

Now you have added proxies to TabSentry. You can test your proxy speeds and use them with many modules in TabSentry.
