Will the thread forget content caching? That's not what Steve is talking about. 

He wants to know if his newly setup DNS servers get returned Chicago NetFlix 
IPs and not Los Angeles NetFlix IPs.

I think at the end of the day it comes down to what your caching server is 
using for DNS initially. At least I would have to assume, I don't know where 
else it would get any name resolution?

Run NetFlix. 
With Torch, capture it Netflix's IP. 
Traceroute to it. 


That's the best you're going to get.

to make the question much simpler, what tool can I use to verify geographically 
and/or performancewise what CDNs are being utilized for various content

I don’t understand how the caching server is going to help with CDNs. Actually, 
with so much Internet content now being either dynamic HTML or streaming, I 
wouldn’t think caching would be worth it, unless you are talking about 
something like a Netflix OpenConnect appliance. Maybe you can cache software 
updates, I’m not sure about that.

Geographically close CDNs. I want to make sure we are getting content from 
Illinoisish rather than california for netflix, since all that matters is 
netflix

For performance, look at queryperf which I think is provided by ISC/bind. 

I'm not sure what you mean by "we are getting good CDNs and the like," though.

Im bringing live our first caching server today. Is there a good tool for 
comparing queries between DNS servers. 
Im not all that concerned about speed since we are so small there wont be a 
huge amount of benefit I would think. Im primarily wanting to make sure we are 
getting good CDNs and the like
