# Sessions

Session management controls the frequency of proxy IP rotation, directly impacting account security, crawling efficiency, and business stability. Mobile proxies support two session modes: **Rotating Session** and **Sticky Session**.Please replace `username:password` and `host:port` with your actual credentials.​

***

**Rotating Session**

No additional parameters are required. The exit IP is automatically changed with every request.

**Example:**

```
curl -x host:port -U "username-zone-roam-region-uk:password" ipinfo.io
```

**Sticky Session**

The same IP is maintained for a specified duration (1–120 minutes).

**Example:**

```
curl -x host:port -U "username-zone-roam-region-uk-session-4452cc881deb-sesstime-10:password" ipinfo.io
```
