| If it's a Linux box
ssh -ND 1234 user@ip
Setup your web browser to SOCKS proxy and localhost:1234

| since I want to use a different IP other than my server IP I would use the config you posted for @steven_elvisda correct?
my serverIP is 127.ServerIP
my Not_in_use_IP is 128.NotUsedIP <- i want to use this IP as Proxy
and can I set which IPs are allowed to used the proxy?
example I only want my HomeIP, and ServerIPs (11 of them) to have access to use the proxy.

| this setup will want authentication after you add this proxy to your internet browser when you first try to go somewhere over this proxy. such as you are trying to enter a password protected web page. Only this time, squid will honor your access credentials for 2 hours to surf anywhere you want.
So anybody with the correct user and password which you created during setup can use this proxy server. There are no other ip based access controls other than that.
and about your server ips: yes you can use any ips attached to your server. just change it with the 12.34.56.78 in my squid.conf file.
