Shared (rotating) proxy configuration
Default countries selection
When selecting countries in shared pool configuration, we will assign proxies only from the countries you select. You can select none (which meand we will assign the next random proxy from the pool), one or more countries.

Number of IPs
For unlimited proxies we offer a discount based on amount of proxies you purchase per zone. The more you buy, less your pay per proxy. Click on the “Rates” link in your zone setup to see rates.
Country selection
Geolocation targeting allows you to target specificCountry.
Select the preferred countries from the drop-down menu.
Once selected, we will assign proxies from those countries. If we do not have enough proxies to cover your requirement, we will assign the amount we have and you can submit an order for the full amount of proxies (we do not allow single proxy orders - we will take in large orders only).
Changing this selection means re-allocating proxies, which will incur a Refresh charge .
How does multiple countries selection work?
If you select multiple countries, we assign proxies in **available countries **at the moment of assignment. For example: if you choose proxies from Germany, France & Italy, we will provide proxies from **either **of these countries. We will try to distribute the assignment evenly across the countries you selected, yet if there are not enough proxies in one of the countries, some countries will have more proxies than other. So referring to that example, if you request 30 proxies from Germany, France & Italy and we have only 6 available proxies in Italy you will get: 12 proxies from Germany, 12 from France and 6 from Italy.
Changing country
It is possible to change the country you selected for your proxies. Once you change the country, Bright Data will assign new proxies from the selected countries. Since this is a replacement of proxy you will recieve a new IP. Changing country is similar to IP refresh action and is charged the same.Access your allocated Proxies’ IP addresses
In all proxy types, you can download, view and copy to clipboard the IPs allocated to you by following these steps:- Navigate to the Zones page.
- Select a zone with allocated IPs.
- In the overview tab click ‘Download’, ‘View’ or ‘Copy’.
Advanced options
Automatic Failover
In case we cannot reach the proxy peer for your request, we will route the request to another available peer. Automatic failover does not apply when you choose default countries: if we cannot find a peer in the country you selected, we will fail the request with error. Enabling automatic failover assures execution of the request, regardless of the availability of a specific peer.Special Ports & Protocols
