Buat pengguna OPEN DNS di Indonesia, Releas terbaru dari Open DNS.
Our Singpore datacenter is now online and serving production OpenDNS traffic. The Singapore server marks our 12th datacenter globally and the first of a number planned for Asia.
One of the benefits of OpenDNS is that we use Anycast routing in how we run our network, which means that no matter where you are in the world, your DNS requests route through our closest datacenter. For those in Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, India and throughout Asia, the new datacenter promises an even faster Internet.
That said, Internet routing is not a perfect science and requires a lot of work to get right. If you are in Asia and a traceroute doesn’t show you talking to Singapore for DNS we want to know! Please send a traceroute from your computer to 208.67.222.222 to our support department so we can see which networks in Asia aren’t seeing our new routes.
Some of the most frequent questions we get are about using OpenDNS with a dynamic IP address. You’ve got questions, we’ve got answers.
- How do I determine what kind of IP address I have?
- The best way to determine what kind of IP address you have is to simply call your ISP (Internet Service Provider), and ask.
You’ll want to ask if your IP is one of the following: 1. Static (which means your IP address never changes) 2. Dynamic (which means that your public IP address changes periodically) or 3. NAT (which means that your ISP assigns one single IP to groups of subscribers, rather than each subscriber getting their own unique IP address)
- Do I have to do anything differently if I have a dynamic IP?
- You should make sure to do the following after enabling OpenDNS on your network.
- Enable Dynamic IP updating in your network settings
- Download and install the Dynamic IP updater client for Windows/Mac or Linux
- Resolver cache flush
Identifying a phish from a real website can be tough work. Online scammers are getting more and more sophisticated, by making their fraudulent sites a mirror image of the brands they are spoofing.
If you use OpenDNS (and take care to look at the URL of a website you are signing into (check for the https)) you should be safe. But what about those who don’t know how to identify a website from a URL? Take this quiz to see how well you do identifying phishing websites and outsmarting Internet bad guys on looks alone. And once you do, post your results on Twitter and Facebook to help get the word out!
