# CURL Request

<Tip>All proxy products of the platform need to be used in an overseas network environment, which requires customers to configure themselves.</Tip>

This article demonstrates how to use `curl` to initiate requests through Ip2up static residential proxy IPs, suitable for direct proxy connection calls in terminals or scripts.\
Static residential proxies include two line types: **Native Residential IP** and **ISP IP**. Both support account-and-password sub-account authentication, and the exit IP remains fixed throughout the connection session.

## HTTP Proxy

```bash theme={null}
curl -x http://USERNAME:PASSWORD@PROXY_IP:PROXY_PORT https://ipinfo.io
```

## SOCKS5 Proxy

```bash theme={null}
curl --socks5 USERNAME:PASSWORD@PROXY_IP:PROXY_PORT https://ipinfo.io
```
