What Is a Proxy Server?
Proxy serves act as a barrier between your computer and the websites that you are accessing on the Internet. A proxy server gathers and saves files that are frequently requested by multiple users in a database. This particular database is called a cache. Because proxy servers cache common data (non-user specific), a proxy server can increase the speed of your Internet connection. This is if the cache already has stored some of the information you are looking for. That is how the results can often be returned to you in virtually no time at all. The performance is sped up as a direct result.A proxy server can also help in the event an owner has a restriction. It is not all that uncommon for some of the resources on the Internet to restrict a viewer from their content. This is typically done in order to keep geographical locations and other reasons from being allowed to access particular content. In addition to that, among proxy servers there are so called anonymous proxy servers that hide your IP address thereby saving you from vulnerabilities concerned with it.
Anonymous proxy servers are designed to hide your particular Internet address. Every person that logs onto the Internet has an IP address. This address can sometimes be found at the bottom of the screen as your computer is loading. It is generally a set of numbers and periods. The anonymous proxy hides your IP address from the Internet By hiding the IP address it is preventing any unauthorized access to the computer by the Internet No one will have access to your individual IP address as well as keeping the information you look up on the Internet safe by not allowing anyone on the Internet to gain access to it. In addition to the added security that an anonymous proxy server gives, it doesn't tell others that you are using it. Also, it can be used for many web services such as web-chat rooms, e-mail and much more.
It is safer to use a proxy server because it blocks everyone from getting any of your personal information while you are on the Internet If you are using your IP address without a proxy server your Internet activity can be screened and even spied upon. Making it fairly simple for your banking account and other personal information to fall into the wrong hands. It is even possible for you to become blocked from viewing a website that otherwise you would have had access to.
It is possible with an unblocked IP address for you to become a prime candidate for the marketers that are throughout the Internet By allowing your IP address to be viewed while you are on the Internet you can almost guarantee that your spam box will become increasing on its own. It is common for the unprotected Internet users to become vulnerable. Websites can easily exploit the holes within the security system that you have on your computer. This has been proving to be a very easy task even when using free tools that have been downloaded on the Internet Some of these programs can actually make your computer run slower and have other performance issues.
What Is An IP Address?
IP Address (Internet Protocol Address):
This number is an exclusive number all information technology devices (printers, routers, modems, et al) use which identifies and allows them the ability to communicate with each other on a computer network. There is a standard of communication which is called an Internet Protocol standard (IP). In laymans terms it is the same as your home address. In order for you to receive snail mail at home the sending party must have your correct mailing address (IP address) in your town (network) or you do not receive bills, pizza coupons or your tax refund. The same is true for all equipment on the internet. Without this specific address, information cannot be received. IP addresses may either be assigned permanently for an Email server/Business server or a permanent home resident or temporarily, from a pool of available addresses (first come first serve) from your Internet Service Provider. A permanent number may not be available in all areas and may cost extra so be sure to ask your ISP.
Domain Name System (DNS): This allows the IP address to be translated to words. It is much easier for us to remember a word than a series of numbers. The same is true for email addresses.
For example, it is much easier for you to remember a web address name such as whatismyip.com than it is to remember 192.168.1.1 or in the case of email it is much easier to remember email@somedomain.com than email@192.168.1.1
Dynamic IP Address: An IP address that is not static and could change at any time. This IP address is issued to you from a pool of IP addresses allocated by your ISP or DHCP Server. This is for a large number of customers that do not require the same IP Address all the time for a variety of reasons. Your computer will automatically get this number as it logs on to the network and saves you the trouble of having to know details regarding the specific network configurations. This number can be assigned to anyone using a dial-up connection, Wireless and High Speed Internet connections. If you need to run your own email server or web server, it would be best to have a static IP.
Static IP Address: An IP address that is fixed and never changes. This is in contrast to a dynamic IP address which may change at any time. Most ISP's a single static IP or a block of static IP's for a few extra bucks a month.
IP version 4: Currently used by most network devices. However, with more and more computers accessing the internet, IPv4 addresses are running out quickly. Just like in a city, addresses have to be created for new neighborhoods but, if your neighborhood gets too large, you will have to come up with an entire new pool of addresses. IPv4 is limited to 4,294,967,296 addresses.
IP version 5: This is an experimental protocol for UNIX based systems. In keeping with standard UNIX (a computer Operating System) release conventions, all odd-numbered versions are considered experimental. It was never intended to be used by the general public.
IP version 6: The replacement for the aging IPv4. The estimated number of unique addresses for IPv6 is 340,282,366,920,938,463,463,374,607,431,768,211,456 or 2^128.
The old and current standard of addresses was this: 192.168.100.100 the new way can be written different ways but means the same and are all valid:
* 1080:0000:0000:0000:0000:0034:0000:417A
* 1080:0:0:0:0:34:0:417A
* 1080::34:0:417A
