These measurement collect this information already for you: IPv4: https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/8310245/ IPv6: https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/8310366/ They were set up as part of a larger project to collect data about DNS resolvers: https://dnsthought.nlnetlabs.nl/raw/ — Moritz > On 29 Jun 2021, at 04:26, Cameron Steel <tugzrida at gmail.com> wrote: > > To some extent, yes. > > In the JSON results download, the dst_addr key will provide the address that the probe sent its query to, however this will probably not be massively useful, as it’ll often be the address of a local router or other DNS cache. > > Finding out what resolver a given client is using at the level of "is this Cloudflare/Google/Local ISP/etc" is a little harder and requires using either an NSID query, which you can set on Atlas measurements but may not be supported by all resolvers, or a "whoami" style service like Akamai’s: https://developer.akamai.com/blog/2018/05/10/introducing-new-whoami-tool-dns-resolver-information. > > Hope that helps > Cameron > > >> On 29 Jun 2021, at 11:12, pravicha <pravicha at masonlive.gmu.edu> wrote: >> >> Hello, >> >> I’ve been trying to get dns measurements for a couple of domains over different regions using atlas probes.
