Please see the cause of my confusion Please see my code: ``` package seleniumFiles; import java.util.Arrays; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.*; import org.openqa.selenium.remote.DesiredCapabilities; public class SeleniumClass { public static void main(String[] args) { System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\work\selenium-java-3.0.1\chromedriver.exe"); DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.chrome(); capabilities.setCapability("network.proxy.http", "93.180.7.246"); capabilities.setCapability("network.proxy.http_port", "8080"); capabilities.setCapability("webdriver.chrome.args", Arrays.asList("--verbose --whitelisted-ips=''")); WebDriver dri…

Accepted Answer

All answers with `addArguments("--whitelisted-ips=''");` are wrong. This argument needs to be injected into chromedriver exe, not chrome.

If you use ChromeDriver loccaly directly from code, just insert lines below before ChromeDriver init

```
    System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.whitelistedIps", "");
```

If you use it remotely (eg. Selenium hub/grid) you need to setup system property when node is run like in command:

```
java -Dwebdriver.chrome.whitelistedIps= testClass
```

or docker by passing JAVA_OPTS env

```
  chrome:
    image: selenium/node-chrome:3.141.59
    container_name: chrome
    depends_on:
      - selenium-hub
    environment:
      - HUB_HOST=selenium-hub
      - HUB_PORT=4444
      - JAVA_OPTS=-Dwebdriver.chrome.whitelistedIps=
```
