There are 7 ip addresses assigned to the host name where.dnsmasq.com These addresses are sequential because they are all on the same server. However, it is just as true that these seven addresses could represent completely separate clusters of locally load balanced servers spanning the globe.

These 7 addresses simulate multiple servers assigned to different parts of the globe. The ip address that is returned to your dns server for where.dnsmasq.com will depend on the location of the dns server. If you use machines scattered around the globe you should see that the ip address varies as you move around the globe.

Although this test only uses the 6 highest level address delegating authorities, the control panel offers you many more options to choose from.

geo.dnsmasq.com is a CNAME pointed at where.dnsmasq.com
