Exit IP

The exit IP is the public IP address from which a proxied request finally reaches its destination: a household device for a residential proxy, a hosted address for an ISP or datacenter proxy, a carrier address for a mobile proxy. Everything the destination decides about location, provider and reputation is decided about the exit, not about the gateway you connected to.

How to see your exit#

Send a request through the proxy to an IP-echo service and read the answer; then look the address up in a public geolocation database to confirm country, city and provider. Doing this once per new configuration catches most targeting mistakes before they cost traffic.

Exit replacement#

In a residential pool an exit can go offline mid-session. A good gateway then binds the session to another device in the same location and the client sees at most one failed request. Dedicated static addresses do not move; if one becomes unreachable it is replaced by the provider under its policy.

How it works at Proxy Cyber#

On Proxy Cyber a sticky session that loses its exit continues on another household in the same location; dedicated addresses unreachable for more than 24 hours are replaced for the rest of the term.
