Good morning,

Recently, in one of my websites, the owner of the hosting service, proposes to pass the content (videos and images) to Cdn. How do I know you actually switched to Cdn? How do I test, and see which server is supplying me with the contents? There are tools to test Cdn?

Thank you

You can use the command host in cmd with the site name:

host -a www.visitbritain.com

He will return:

www.visitbritain.com. 0 IN CNAME d18sjq5nyxcof4.cloudfront.net.

We can see that the site uses d18sjq5nyxcof4.cloudfront.net as CDN.

  • Okay, but how would OP know that d18sjq5nyxcof4.cloudfront.net this is a CDN and not a desktop in someone’s room?

  • it will have the name of the website and can check on the internet if it is a service cnd.

  • You can do this on MAC OS?

  • You have to look for the equivalent command on mac, I’ll see if I find

  • I’ve looked. I can’t find anything.

  • See if this helps friend http://osxdaily.com/2015/03/19/detailed-dns-lookup-host-command/
