description: Inspect public IP metadata or compare DNS answers using Net Insight, preserving source timestamps, unknown reputation fields and resolver errors.

Use https://sitefarm-net-insight.pages.dev for user-requested public IP or DNS diagnostics.

Read-only JSON endpoints:

- `GET /api/network/ip?ip=1.1.1.1` accepts a public IPv4 or IPv6 address. Omit `ip` only when the requester wants the caller's network exit; a tool-executed request sees the tool server's exit, not necessarily the user's device.
- `GET /api/network/dns?name=example.com&type=A` compares Cloudflare and Google. Supported types: A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, NS, SOA, CAA, DS, DNSKEY and PTR. PTR takes a reverse-DNS name. Supply a hostname, not a URL.

Use an available HTTP tool with encoded query parameters. A lookup discloses the queried address/name to the named providers. Respect HTTP 429 and stop rather than looping requests. Network errors are not NXDOMAIN. The service does not offer arbitrary URL fetches or port scans.

Report the source, query time, response status and material limitations. Reputation `null` is unknown, not false or clean. A risk score, when returned, is explicitly attributed to proxycheck.io. Higher values indicate more risk in that provider’s model, not a universal cleanliness percentage. IP location is approximate; it does not establish a person's home address or guarantee access to a third-party website.

For DNS, preserve each resolver's answers, TTL and AD flag. Matching answer sets ignore TTL and record order. Two public resolvers queried from one execution location are not global propagation probes. Elapsed time is a server request duration, not browser-to-website latency.

The `/ip-check/` and `/dns-lookup/` pages provide the same diagnostics with copy/download controls. Core lookups do not require registration. Do not create an account or save a report unless requested.
