Sticky vs Rotating port

Sticky port

The residential endpoint has three options you can choose from, – 1, 10, or 30 minutes. You can change the port or the session ID to rotate the IP prematurely.

To select a sticky Session type, navigate to the Proxy setup section and use the drop-down menu.

Once you make the first connection with a sticky port, the IP will not change for the specified duration, no matter how many requests you make.

📘

Custom sticky session

You can manually set a custom sticky session duration with any integer value between 1 and 30 by using the sessionduration parameter. You can find out more on the Custom sticky session length page.

Rotating port

If you select the Rotating port, the endpoint will rotate the IP on every proxy request.

• A new proxy IP is assigned every time you load the same or a different web page.

To select a rotating Session type, navigate to the Proxy setup section and use the drop-down menu.
