Noob question. Would that request travel over the internet or is it resolved locally?

[-] ArtVandelay@lemmy.world -3 points 3 years ago

That's a WAN IP, so it would be resolved by external DNS then routed back

[-] PR_freak@programming.dev 13 points 3 years ago

Why are you mentioning dns? This is an ip request, no need to contact a dns server

[-] AnActOfCreation@programming.dev 3 points 3 years ago

Because the title mentions having a domain, I guess.

Yes, that was the train of thought I was on. I equated "find" to "resolve" and I've been dutifully chastised.
