Discussing DNS Anycast: Besides the topologically nearest route, what other factors play a role in selecting the path to a server instance? Latency, server health, load balancing, response time? Looking to understand the complexity behind routing decisions in Anycast deployments. Thanks! submitted by /u/alicm21 [link] [comments] Powered by WPeMatico

I’ve setup a VPN and have turned on DNS so that IP location is only in one place rather than VPN location and DNS location. In doing so, should I turn off DNS over HTTPS for my browser? Not sure how this works or what the best DNS/VPN setup is. submitted by /u/seek-VERITAS [link] [comments] … Read More “DNS over HTTPS or use DNS from VPN” »

Hey everyone I’m a little new to DNS and I’m currently working through a problem that I am hoping to get some insight into. Sorry if I’m not explaining well as this is very new to me.

Hey there, I’m having my domain at NearlyFreeSpeech without any actual space there. Instead, I’m having my page via DNS at GitHub Pages and would like to do the same for that domain with iCloud email. Since GitHub already requires ten records (4x A, 4x AAAA, 1x CNAME, 1x TXT) is it possible to simply … Read More “Cluttered DNS list for multiple services – how to?” »

I’m wondering if I have this diagram logic right. I’m new to the idea that I have to go get DNS service with a company that specializes in DNS service rather than having it built-in by default with the web host. ​ https://preview.redd.it/ui5wvuny7vjb1.jpg?width=568&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7ba6c38e433e8b557d9729e703fc889c0961e480 My current web host is slow and we have been advised by … Read More “Domain Registrar DNS Site Organization Re-Architecture” »

I made a Name Server change for a Domain 10 hours ago. When I look the Domain up there is still the old Name Server. As I’ve learnt this behavior seems to be normal and that the propagation will take a couple of hours or days of time… My Question is now, is there a … Read More “Is their a way to check if a Name Server change will be really propagated/get affective?” »

Generally, when transferring a domain’s nameservers, propagation happens at a predictable speed. However, it seems that some DNS hosts take a long time. For example, I have a client that is *sigh* transferring their domain to their web host. The new nameservers are loaded properly and are propagating a little bit, but only about 50% … Read More “What causes multi-week propagation delays/partial propagation?” »

I’m not a DNS expert so Forgive me if I don’t have the right nomenclature. I suspect my all-in-one web host where our domain lives is somehow a bad DNS provider and somehow is slowing down our server response time / TTFB. This comes after umpteen performance optimizations and WPEngine demonstrating that our site runs … Read More “How can I identify bad DNS hosting providers?” »
