How to use Hostname to IP Lookup

Enter a domain, hostname, or full URL and run the tool. The result shows whether the hostname resolves to IPv4 addresses, IPv6 addresses, or both. It also reports any CNAME records returned by DNS.

What the result means

An A record maps a hostname to an IPv4 address. An AAAA record maps a hostname to an IPv6 address. A CNAME record points one hostname to another canonical hostname, which may then resolve to address records. Some websites return multiple IP addresses for load balancing, CDN routing, failover, or regional traffic handling.

Difference from IP geolocation

This tool focuses on DNS resolution. The IP address returned by DNS may belong to a CDN, cloud provider, reverse proxy, or regional edge server. IP location, ISP, and organization can vary depending on the DNS answer and resolver location, so those signals are best handled by a dedicated IP lookup or geolocation tool.

Hostname Resolution Tips

Use this tool when checking whether a hostname has IPv4 or IPv6 connectivity, diagnosing DNS changes, reviewing CDN answers, or confirming that a URL resolves before troubleshooting HTTP-level issues.
