ISP Proxies ​

ISP (Internet Service Provider) proxies combine the speed of datacenter proxies with better legitimacy, as they use IP addresses assigned by real ISPs.

IP Rotation Behavior ​

ISP proxies provide a static exit IP , the same IP address is used for all connections throughout the lifetime of the proxy. Every tab, request, and reconnection within a browser session exits through the same IP. This makes ISP proxies ideal for session-based workflows, login flows, and any use case where a consistent IP is important.

Configuration ​

Create an ISP proxy:

typescript
  import Kernel from '@onkernel/sdk';

  const kernel = new Kernel();

  const proxy = await kernel.proxies.create({
    type: 'isp',
    name: 'my-isp-proxy',
  });

  const browser = await kernel.browsers.create({
    proxy_id: proxy.id,
  });
python
from kernel import Kernel

kernel = Kernel()

proxy = kernel.proxies.create(
    type="isp",
    name="my-isp-proxy",
)

browser = kernel.browsers.create(proxy_id=proxy.id)

Configuration Parameters ​

  • bypass_hosts (optional) - Array of hostnames that bypass the proxy and connect directly (max 100 entries)

Bypass hosts ​

Configure specific hostnames to bypass the proxy:

typescript
  import Kernel from '@onkernel/sdk';

  const kernel = new Kernel();

  const proxy = await kernel.proxies.create({
    type: 'isp',
    name: 'isp-with-bypass',
    bypass_hosts: [
      'localhost',
      'internal.service.local',
      '*.amazonaws.com',
    ],
  });
python
from kernel import Kernel

kernel = Kernel()

proxy = kernel.proxies.create(
    type="isp",
    name="isp-with-bypass",
    bypass_hosts=[
        "localhost",
        "internal.service.local",
        "*.amazonaws.com",
    ]
)
