Input the KnoxProxy gateway address and port.
Address: gw.knoxproxy.com
Port: 7000 (HTTP) or 7001 (SOCKS5)
Protocol: HTTPS or SOCKS Version 5Check "Enable" under Authentication and enter your KnoxProxy username and password.
Username: your_username-country-us
Password: your_passwordGo to Profile > Proxification Rules. Create rules to route specific applications through KnoxProxy or set a default rule for all traffic.
Click "Check" on the proxy server entry to verify KnoxProxy connectivity. Open a browser to confirm your IP has changed.

| Problem | Fix |
|---|---|
| Check fails with "Connection refused" | Use HTTPS protocol with port 7000 or SOCKS5 with port 7001. Ensure you selected the correct type. |
| Some applications bypass Proxifier | Enable "Handle Direct Connections" in Proxifier settings. Add the application explicitly to a proxification rule. |
| Slow speeds for all traffic | Create exclusion rules for trusted applications (Windows Update, backup tools) that do not need proxying. |
USER-country-de-city-berlin-session-profile07Order matters -- geo flags before the session flag. The session name is free text; use the profile ID so the mapping is self-documenting. Password stays as issued; no flags belong there. HTTP on :7000, SOCKS5 on :7001, same credentials.
