I believe the full identifier is a quad: (source ip, source port, dest ip, dest port).
- mrkstu 8y agoAlso note that DNS will load balance the IP presented. For instance 'dig'ing yahoo.com gives me the following: ;; ANSWER SECTION: yahoo.com. 92 IN A 72.30.35.9 yahoo.com. 92 IN A 98.138.219.231 yahoo.com. 92 IN A 72.30.35.10 yahoo.com. 92 IN A 98.137.246.7 yahoo.com. 92 IN A 98.138.219.232 yahoo.com. 92 IN A 98.137.246.8 So you can now multiple the quad by the number of public IPs you load up into your DNS record.
