A proxy IP is the IP address of an intermediate server, acting as a network intermediary. Your request is first sent to the proxy server, which then accesses the target website using its own IP and passes the result back to you. The website only sees the proxy IP, not your real IP. General Proxy IP: Refers to all IPs used as intermediate servers to forward requests, with broad sources (data centers, cloud servers, shared pools, etc.). Native Proxy IP (Native IP): Specifically refers to a real IP directly assigned by a local ISP (Internet Service Provider) in the target region (mostly home/enterprise broadband IP). Its registration information, geographic location, and ASN are completely consistent with the actual place of use, with no proxy/data center markers. A general proxy IP is like a temporary pass and is easily detected; a native proxy IP is like a local ID card, with a real identity and high credibility, making it harder to detect.
