- ratww 6y agoGood question. No idea why it was downvoted. They seem to be behind Akamai. Their current https server at https://www.bom.gov.au https://www.bom.gov.au returns AkamaiGHost in the Server Header: HTTP/1.1 307 Temporary Redirect Server: AkamaiGHost Content-Length: 0 Location: http://www.bom.gov.au/akamai/https-redirect.html Date: Wed, 02 Dec 2020 12:23:22 GMT Connection: keep-alive Server-Timing: cdn-cache; desc=HIT Server-Timing: edge; dur=1 Also their IP address (for me 104.108.145.63) belongs to Akamai: NetRange: 104.64.0.0 - 104.127.255.255 CIDR: 104.64.0.0/10 NetName: AKAMAI NetHandle: NET-104-64-0-0-1 Parent: NET104 (NET-104-0-0-0-0) NetType: Direct Allocation OriginAS: Organization: Akamai Technologies, Inc.
