Abstract:
A wireless communication network includes a Domain Name System (DNS) caching server. The DNS caching server receives a request from a client device to access a network site and queries one or more DNS servers for potential Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for accessing the network site. The DNS caching server receives, from the one or more DNS servers, a plurality of IP addresses for accessing the network site and evaluates the plurality of IP addresses. Based at least in part upon the evaluating, the DNS caching server selects an IP address from the plurality of IP addresses and provides the IP address to the client. The DNS caching server may be located some place other than the wireless communication network and perform the same functions for client devices not accessing the wireless communication network.
