Domain to IP Lookup

Domain to IP lookup resolves a domain name to its IP address using live DNS queries — showing you exactly which server handles traffic for that domain.

DNS (Domain Name System) is the internet's address book. When you type a domain name, your browser sends a DNS query to resolve it to an IP address. Our tool performs a live DNS resolution and shows you the returned A record (IPv4) or AAAA record (IPv6). It also checks whether the IP belongs to a CDN or proxy service like Cloudflare, AWS CloudFront, Fastly, or Akamai — since those services hide the origin server's real IP.

What is DNS Resolution?

DNS resolution translates a human-readable domain name (like example.com) into a machine-readable IP address that servers use to route traffic.

DNS resolution follows a chain of queries: your device asks a recursive resolver, which contacts the root DNS servers, then the TLD nameservers (.com, .io, etc.), and finally the authoritative nameserver for the domain. Each step caches results for a set time (TTL). Our tool bypasses local cache and queries authoritative nameservers directly so you always get the current live IP — not a stale cached value.

CDN & Proxy Detection

CDN detection identifies whether a domain routes traffic through a content delivery network like Cloudflare, Fastly, or AWS CloudFront — meaning the IP shown is the CDN's, not the origin server's.

Over 50% of web traffic passes through CDN networks. When a domain is behind Cloudflare, DNS resolves to one of Cloudflare's anycast IPs — not the website's actual server. This tool detects that pattern by cross-referencing resolved IPs against known CDN and proxy CIDR ranges. When detected, a warning is shown so you understand the returned IP is a CDN edge node, not the origin server.

IPv4 vs IPv6 Records

A records return IPv4 addresses (e.g., 93.184.216.34) while AAAA records return IPv6 addresses. Both can coexist for the same domain.

Modern DNS supports dual-stack configurations where a single domain has both A (IPv4) and AAAA (IPv6) records. When a client connects, it typically prefers IPv6 if available. This tool resolves both record types when present so you can see the full DNS picture. For direct connections, the IPv6 address often belongs to the same organization as the IPv4 address but may be on a different prefix.

Resolve any domain to its IP address and detect CDN/proxy layers instantly.

Use Cases

DevOps engineers use domain-to-IP lookup to verify DNS propagation after deployments. Security researchers use it to map the infrastructure behind suspicious domains. Webmasters use it to confirm that CDN or proxy services are correctly fronting their origin server before going live.

How to Use This Tool

What to Enter
Enter a domain name to resolve it to its IPv4 (A record) and IPv6 (AAAA record) addresses.
What You Get
Shows all resolved IP addresses (IPv4 and IPv6), hosting provider, geographic location, ASN, and whether the domain is behind a CDN or proxy.

How to Interpret Results

Multiple IPs indicate load balancing or CDN usage. If the IP belongs to Cloudflare, AWS CloudFront, or similar CDN, the real origin server IP is hidden. IPv6 support (AAAA records) indicates modern infrastructure.

Common Issues & Troubleshooting

CDN/proxy IPs do not reveal the actual hosting server. DNS propagation delays after migration show old IPs. Round-robin DNS returns different IPs on each query.
