In short, in any case this is … a mess!
Today we will see, in this How-To, how to choose the client that best suits your needs.

Redirect all (TCP) traffic through transparent socks5 proxy in Linux
SOCKet Secure (SOCKS) is an Internet protocol that routes network packets between a client and server through a proxy server. SOCKS5 additionally provides authentication so only authorized users may access a server. Practically, a SOCKS server will proxy TCP connections to an arbitrary IP address as well as providing a means for UDP packets to be forwarded.
As SOCKS (as it was already marked above) transfers all data from a client to a server, nothing adding from itself, from the point of view of a web-server, a socks proxy is a client. Therefore anonymity of this type of proxy servers is really always absolute.
In this article we’ll see how to use redsocks to achieve a SOCKS proxy.
