Proxy Bastion does not sell IPs. It sits in front of proxies you already pay for and gives each person a revocable, metered link instead of your credentials. What they receive is a relay link and nothing else: no upstream host, no upstream password.
This release accepts http and https upstreams only. It does not support socks5 upstreams.
We have not published a Bright Data gateway host, port or credential format here. Their public residential quickstart walks through creating the account and the zone but does not state the connection details, and we do not publish values we could not read off a source. Take them from your own zone settings and verify them with the command in step two.
We are not affiliated with Bright Data and we do not resell their traffic.
We have not published Bright Data's gateway host, port or credential format on this
page, because we could not confirm them from their public documentation on the date above.
Take those values from your own dashboard and verify them with the command in the setup
steps below.
Setup
1. Take the proxy credentials, not the ones you log in with
Their public quickstart walks through creating an account and then a zone, and the credential a proxy connection uses is not necessarily the one you sign in with. Copy the values from the entry for the proxy you intend to expose, and note that rotating that password later stops every link built on it at once.
2. Verify the upstream before registering it
Substitute your own host, port and proxy credentials. A 200 proves the upstream side is fine, which is what lets you attribute any later failure to configuration on the recipient side instead.
Record the exit IP and country before handing anything out. This is also the value the recipient browser profile should be matched against, which is a step we cannot do for them.
4. Register the upstream, pool it, then issue one link per recipient
Each link carries its own expiry and traffic ceiling. Revoking one link leaves your Bright Data credentials and all other links untouched, which is the whole point of putting something in front of a shared upstream. Two limits to know before you rely on either control: a revoked link can stay usable for up to about 60 more seconds while the edge cache expires, and the traffic ceiling is enforced from usage reported back in batches, so a link can overshoot it by up to about five minutes of traffic.

The public residential proxy quickstart covers the account and zone setup workflow and does not state a gateway hostname, port or credential format, which is why this page does not publish those values. https://docs.brightdata.com/proxy-networks/residential/quickstart(checked 2026-08-14)
