Step 06Understand outbound modes

Stash supports three outbound modes:

  • Rule: routes requests according to the profile rules.
  • Global: sends every request through the proxy server.
  • Direct: connects every request directly without a proxy.

Global mode can proxy traffic that would otherwise connect directly, slowing local services and using plan data. Rule mode preserves direct access where appropriate, so it is usually the best default.

Verify the Connection Before Troubleshooting

Take a minute to confirm the connection after completing the guide. If it still fails, open the FAQ that matches the symptom.

  • Confirm the profile is active
  • Test the selected node
  • Check the matched rule
