- NYC:

    $ dig +short -t a www.google.com
    142.250.65.196

    ... a few minutes later ...

    $ dig +short -t a www.google.com
    142.250.176.196

- LAX:

    $ dig +short -t a www.google.com
    142.250.72.132

    ... a few minutes later ...

    $ dig +short -t a www.google.com
    142.250.188.228

- MEL:

    $ dig +short -t a www.google.com
    142.250.70.228

- MUC:

    $ dig +short -t a www.google.com
