What is the difference between IP authorization and login/password?
Both authorization methods: IP authorization and login/password, provide the ability to connect to the same common IP pool. Choose an option that’s convenient for you and supports your use case.
Note, however, that there are differences in supported protocols and ports, as well as in required parameters:
| Protocols & Ports | Required parameters | Additional configurations | |
| IP Auth | HTTP/SOCKS5H 9000+ | Domain/IP, port number | Add your IP(s) to the whitelist. |
| Password Auth | HTTP 10000+ | Domain/IP, port number, login, password |
