My Internet provider has proxy settings and when connected to the device comes out the same settings.
I want the device to getout the Internet without a proxy.
Example i want to be;-
==[Internet Source with Proxy]=> Mikrotik device =[internet without proxy]=>
My proxy setting is:-
-Proxy server :172.16.5.62
-Proxy server Port:8080
Authentication
-username: hamada
-password: hamada
Thank you for your cooperation in advance.
This is possible if you use transparent proxy and redirect traffic to the parent proxy with authorization. But mikrotik cannot use authorization either for the local or for the parent proxy.

I have a corporate proxy using Squid and kerberos for authentication, the proxy is configured for standard use, I.E allow http, https, a few others and block everything else. Now, there are many applications that support basic proxy authentication, but do not support Kerberos based authentication and many others that connect directly to the internet. I used Proxifier before the upgrade to kerberos to make my applications use the proxy, but I cannot do so now. I then installed an application called PX to create a proxy that connects to kerberos, but the proxy it creates is a simple HTTP Proxy and proxifier doesn't work correctly with it. Anyone has a setup for a situation like this?. I use Windows 10 and I obviously don't have access to the server where squid is configured. The application I need to connect to the internet uses standard https ports, it's not a torrent application nor anything that uses the ports blocked by squid. Thanks in advance.
Ok, for this particular case I've found the following setup to solve 99% of my problems.
First get Px here https://github.com/genotrance/px
Next get Fiddler: http://www.getfiddler.com/dl/Fiddler4BetaSetup.exe
Configure PX with your user and your domain and run it. By default it creates a running proxy on 127.0.0.1:3128
Configure your sistem proxy to use the proxy supplied by PX.
Execute fiddler, it should create ANOTHER proxy at 127.0.0.1:8888
Use this proxy in your apps. Proxifier should work as well.
Why use fiddler and not the direct 127.0.0.1:3128?, PX creates a pure http proxy and fiddler allows to tunnel https and connect request through it.
Any requests will pass through fiddler which will redirect them to the PX proxy which will redirect them to the squid proxy (So expect very slow speeds).
In the end since you're just redirecting your apps towards your proxy, if your proxy bans using regex expressions or direct IP connections some apps will NOT work, and in these cases using TOR or a VPN is the only real solution. Hope it helps someone avoid all the headaches I went through.
I have a VPN (pptpd) server configured and a client connected. In the same machine of VPN server, I have a proxy server (port 3128)(squid) running with authentication enabled. When I use the proxy in my firefox browser it works fine. However, when I conect my notebook to my VPN server I can't navigate using firefox + proxy. Just to remember Proxy server and VPN server running in same machine (a VPS). I'm using UFW firewall.
Is there some tips in configuration files (pptpd or squid) to get this problem fixed?
Best Regards!
use squid's access.log to make sure: squid doesn't receive requests from your notebook; check the routing availability between internal IP network of VPN server and proxy address, it must be accessible (pingable). you may use port address translation (PAT) as a simple fix.
I have full access to a server which is located in some other country. My IP address has been blocked blocked by a website and I need to use my server IP as proxy to access that particular website. I tried out with the server IP address in LAN Setting->use Proxies in my Chrome Browser but I am unable access the internet when i use that IP. How can I do this?
Just entering the server address on client side isn't sufficient. You need to set up your server to behave as a proxy server using something like squid or other alternative.
Is there way to configure such chain MyApp->Fiddler->Web Proxy*->Target Server?
*Web Proxy is one from this list.
P.S. I know how to configure MyApp->Fiddler->Target Server but I need to test some functional associated with situations when user login from unusual location (for example from Africa)
Fiddler can chain to any upstream proxy. By default, it chains to the proxy that Internet Explorer was configured to use when Fiddler started. But you can also manually set the upstream proxy in Fiddler by clicking Tools > Fiddler Options > Gateway.
I am wondering how the proxy will bypass the content filter within firewall?
For example, if you are in China and try to connect to facebook, the GFW will block it. But if you use proxy server, then you can connect through. What is the logic here?
Thanks,
The Firewall blocks the web address from being accessed. A proxy has a different web address and is therefore accessible. However, the proxy is able to access the web address as it is outside the firewall. It sends the HTML code from the webpage to be accessed to your computer.
Think of the proxy as a middleman. It gets you what you want and then sends it to you, without you ever accessing the webpage directly and alerting the firewall.
