How this one compares

37 attempts. Not one connection.

Being published on a proxy list is a claim that an address works. It is not a test, and nobody in that chain is obliged to have tried it. We tried 37 times, which is why the answer on this page is a flat no rather than a maybe.

median 15.6%

Pool median 15.6%. 206.123.156.199:5494 sits below it, which is ordinary for a public proxy.

37

real connection attempts

Each one opens a socket and waits up to 90 seconds. Slow and dead look identical if you stop listening early.

20

days in our records, never once answering

It is not in the lifespan figures at all: those cover the 192,041 endpoints that worked at least once before they stopped.

What normal looks like

Every number above is measured against these two.

A percentage on a proxy list means nothing without the shape of the thing it came from. These are the two distributions the rest of this page compares against, drawn from HProxy's own checks rather than from anybody's marketing page.

Continuous monitoring

How HProxy checks 206.123.156.199:5494

HProxy has opened a connection to 206.123.156.199:5494 37 times and it has never once answered. That is a measurement, not an assumption, and it is the difference between this record and the lists that republished the address without testing it.

  1. One public source published it

    206.123.156.199 reached HProxy through a single public proxy source. Being published on a list is a claim that an address works. It is not a test, and nobody on that chain is obliged to have tried it.

  2. Port 5494: Registered port range

    This port sits in the middle range, where any ordinary program can listen without special permission. The number itself carries no reserved meaning, which tells you somebody picked it on purpose instead of accepting a default.

  3. Every failure here was measured, not assumed

    Each check opens a real connection to 206.123.156.199:5494 and gives it up to 90 seconds to answer. Slow is not the same as dead, and plenty of working proxies take half a minute to reply. Nothing about this record is inherited from the list that published the address. 37 times HProxy tried, and 37 times the connection did not complete inside that budget, which is why the answer on this page is a flat no rather than a maybe. The handshake is attempted across HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4 and SOCKS5, so a proxy is never missed because we guessed the wrong protocol.

  4. 37 checks, zero connections

    Not one of those 37 attempts reached a working proxy. The address stays in the database with that result attached, because "we tried 37 times and it never answered" is a far more useful answer than silence for anyone who found 206.123.156.199 somewhere and wants to know what it is.

  5. It is still re-tested every 24 hours

    206.123.156.199:5494 has never answered, and it is still in the rotation anyway. The sweep reaches every address in the database roughly once every 24 hours regardless of its history, because an address that was dark for months can be brought back online by whoever controls it without telling anybody. Its last check was on August 8, 2026, so the next one is due within a day of that. If that ever happens here, this page changes on its own.

Where this address sits

Right now our free pool holds no other free proxies on LimitedNetwork-AS, and 31 in Iran. 206.123.156.199:5494 sits inside that set, so if it is not usable the pages below are where its closest alternatives are.

LimitedNetwork-AS is the largest single source of published proxy addresses we have ever measured.

Open proxies cluster rather than spreading evenly across the internet. Hosting providers and cloud platforms run enormous numbers of near-identical servers, so a handful of networks end up carrying a disproportionate share of every public proxy list, including ours. HProxy tracks 227,266 addresses on AS213790, which is 38.6% of every address in the database and one of the largest single concentrations in the entire database. That makes it the 1st largest source of free proxies of every network we have ever seen. None of them are answering at the moment, though every one stays in the re-check rotation in case that changes.

Questions about 206.123.156.199:5494

Is 206.123.156.199:5494 a working proxy?

No. 206.123.156.199:5494 was published as a public proxy by our sources, but across 37 checks it never once resolved to a connectable proxy.

Was 206.123.156.199 ever actually a proxy?

It was listed as one, but no. 37 checks, zero successful connections. Plenty of "free proxy" lists republish addresses without ever testing them.

Where was 206.123.156.199 hosted?

Iran, LimitedNetwork-AS (AS213790). It is a residential or ISP address rather than a datacenter one.

Why keep a page for an address that no longer works?

Because "was this address ever a proxy, and when" is a real question. If you are looking at this IP in a firewall log or an abuse report, the dates and the check counts here are the answer. HProxy's public proxy IP list keeps every address it has ever tracked and carries on re-testing them, so deleting this record would throw all of that away.

How many free proxies are on LimitedNetwork-AS?

None other than 206.123.156.199:5494 at the moment. AS213790 (LimitedNetwork-AS) has no other free proxies live in our pool right now, though that changes as we re-verify.

Are there other free proxies in Iran?

Yes, 31 free proxies are exiting from Iran in our pool right now, answering in 3858ms at the median. If this address is not usable, that list is the place to look for a working one.

About this list & IP removal

Every proxy here is aggregated from publicly available sources. We do not scan or collect these IP addresses ourselves: we verify entries that are already public (live status, latency, uptime) and store nothing else about the devices behind them. The list is provided as-is, with no warranty, for lawful use only, on the basis of our legitimate interest in a free, transparent proxy directory (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). Never route passwords or sensitive data through a public proxy. If an IP address is yours and you'd like it removed, email legal@hproxy.com and we'll take it down (Art. 21 GDPR).
