5 minutes ago, my server was unable to find route to api.twitter.com. mtr
showed a blank screen. /etc/init.d/networking restart
fixed the problem but I would like to understand what went wrong so that I can troubleshoot it more precisely next time. Any ideas ?
UPDATE : here is what the host command shows
:
host api.twitter.com
api.twitter.com has address 199.16.156.199
api.twitter.com has address 199.16.156.40
api.twitter.com has address 199.16.156.104
after flushing the cache, one route changes:
host api.twitter.com
api.twitter.com has address 199.16.156.40
api.twitter.com has address 199.16.156.104
api.twitter.com has address 199.16.156.231
