```JavaScript
{
	"server":  "",   // this can be a string ("host:port") or an object with host and port as its keys; leaving it empty makes lookup rely on servers.json
	"follow":  2,    // number of times to follow redirects
	"timeout": 0,    // socket timeout, excluding this doesn't override any default timeout value
	"verbose": false // setting this to true returns an array of responses from all servers
	"bind": null     // bind the socket to a local IP address
	"proxy": {       // (optional) SOCKS Proxy
            host: '118.190.206.111',
            port: 9999,
            userId: "optional",
