### IP Rotation Behavior
The default stealth proxy provides a **static exit IP** — all connections within the session exit through the same IP address. If you override the default with a [residential proxy](/proxies/residential), exit IPs will rotate per connection. See [Residential IP Rotation Behavior](/proxies/residential#ip-rotation-behavior) for details.
