ProxyCap is a versatile network tool that empowers users to reroute their computer's network connections through proxy servers seamlessly. With a user-friendly interface, ProxyCap eliminates the need for manual reconfiguration of Internet clients, allowing users to specify which applications connect to the Internet via proxies and under what conditions. It offers native support for the SSH protocol, enabling users to designate an SSH server as the proxy server.
The software boasts support for various proxy servers, including SOCKS, Shadowsocks, and HTTPS, allowing users to tunnel applications through these proxies even if they do not inherently support them. Additionally, offers built-in support for SSH tunnelling, facilitating transparent application tunnelling through an SSH server without requiring a separate SSH client or application reconfiguration. Furthermore, it supports "pure" HTTP proxying and a wide range of TCP- and UDP-based network protocols, ensuring reliable tunnelling for virtually any Internet-connected application.
ProxyCap's feature set includes proxy-side DNS support, flexible routing rules, proxy chain creation, and compatibility with 64-bit applications across Windows and Mac OS X platforms. It also fully supports IPv6 and offers Single Sign-On (SSO) authentication methods for streamlined proxy authentication. Moreover, the software includes a built-in proxy checker for testing proxy availability and performance and centralized management support for delegating proxy and routing rule definition tasks to network administrators via a ruleset file.
