Understanding the difference between proxy and reverse proxy

Curl is a command-line tool and library for transferring data with URLs. It stands for “Client for URLs” and is used to make requests to various types of servers over a wide range of protocols, including HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, FTPS, SCP, SFTP, LDAP, and more. It’s often used for tasks such as downloading files, making API requests, and testing network connectivity.

How to use Curl with HTTP proxies

If you have http proxies with user and pass
curl x \”http://user:pwd@127.0.0.1:1234\” \”https://buyproxies.org\”

If you have http proxies without user and pass
curl x \”http://127.0.0.1:1234\” \”https://buyproxies.org\”

How to use Curl with SOCKS proxies

If you have socks proxies with user and pass
curl x  \”socks5://user:pwd@127.0.0.1:1234\” \”https://buyproxies.org\”

If you have socks without user and pass
curl x  \”socks5://127.0.0.1:1234\” \https://buyproxies.org

If you get any SSL certification errors from the target site, you can add the \”-k\” parameter to the curl command which will make curl to ignore those errors.
