Re: AT&T Uverse/DSL Network Engineer DNS question

These appear to be an anycasted service, as I reach different destinations
based on my source address.

Hopefully each deployment has unique origin IPs for their recursive queries.

I would recommend against looking at RIR registration data to determine IP
location. There's often little to no correlation, there.

Hi,




Can a AT&T Uverse/DSL Network Engineer answer a question about the DNS
server IPs that are handed out to customers please? I am currently testing
from
a Florida IP. Can you please let me know if all Uverse and DSL customers
across the United States only use these 2 IPs as their primary and
secondary
DNS servers?



68.94.156.1

68.94.157.1



We
provide services based on IP GEO-location. Since the 2 recursive resolvers
below are registered in Texas every DNS query for any of our records return
results that are intended for IPs in that region. In other words, users on
the
east coast would actually resolve to a central part of the US or west
coast IP.



Thanks
in advance,Tim
