If you wish to connect to a Socket Secure (SOCKS) proxy server from a system running Apple's OS X operating system, you can do so through the Network option from System Preferences by clicking on the Advanced button, then selecting the Proxies tab and then checking the check box next to SOCKS Proxy and providing the relevant values or you can use the networksetup command to configure SOCKS proxy server support from a command line interface (CLI), e.g. a Terminal window.
