# PROXY PROTOCOL PREFIXES
The proxy string may be specified with a protocol:// prefix to specify
alternative proxy protocols. (Added in 7.21.7)
If no protocol is specified in the proxy string or if the string does not
match a supported one, the proxy is treated as an HTTP proxy.
The supported proxy protocol prefixes are as follows:
## http://
Makes it use it as an HTTP proxy. The default if no scheme prefix is used.
## https://
Makes it treated as an **HTTPS** proxy.
## socks4://
Makes it the equivalent of --socks4
## socks4a://
Makes it the equivalent of --socks4a
## socks5://
Makes it the equivalent of --socks5
## socks5h://
Makes it the equivalent of --socks5-hostname
