Hi Randy,

In addition, whether it's the configuration or the IP address used by the probe 
for a query as Hugo suggested, this would only give you the entry point into 
the resolution path (and sometimes will be a private IP address of a simple 
forwarder).  But you can query for TXT record for whoami.ds.akahelp.net, which 
will return you the IP address of the egress resolver.
