SOCKS is short for SOCKet Secure which is an Internet protocol that routes network packets between a client and server through a proxy server. And that proxy server is thus called SOCKS proxy server. SOCKS protocol is mostly used for SOCKS proxy to bypass Internet filters to access websites and contents that are blocked by governments, workplaces or schools. So when we saying SOCKS we most time mean SOCKS proxy.

SOCKS is client/server. A users’ workstation must have a SOCKS client installed, either in the application (such as putty, Firefox), or deep in the TCP/IP stack where the client software will redirect packets into a SOCKS tunnel.The SOCKS client will initiate a connection to a SOCKS server. The SOCKS protocol allows for authentication and logging of the connection requests.Here is the confusing bit:The SOCKS server then acts as the IP Client for the connection request.This means that the external server is only aware of the SOCKS Server.
A SOCKS server is a general purpose proxy server that establishes a TCP connection to another server on behalf of a client, then routes all the traffic back and forth between the client and the server. It works for any kind of network protocol on any port. SOCKS Version 5 adds additional support for security and UDP. The SOCKS server does not interpret the network traffic between client and server in any way, and is often used because clients are behind a firewall and are not permitted to establish TCP connections to servers outside the firewall unless they do it through the SOCKS server. Most web browsers for example can be configured to talk to a web server via a SOCKS server. Because the client must first make a connection to the SOCKS server and tell it the host it wants to connect to, the client must be "SOCKS enabled." On Windows, it is possible to "shim" the TCP stack so that all client software is SOCKS enabled.
