The **DNS IP** {% term integration %} will expose an IP address, fetched via DNS resolution (every 2 minutes), as its value. It provides both IPv4 and IPv6 lookup as separate sensors depending on accessibility to resolvers.
1. When you enable the {% term integration %} with the default value, it will query the [OpenDNS](https://www.opendns.com/) nameservers with the hostname `myip.opendns.com`, which will resolve to your external/public IP address.
2. If you specify a `hostname`, a regular DNS lookup will be performed, providing you the IP the hostname resolves to.
