8.8.4.4 IPv4 ✓ Known IP

Google Public DNS — Secondary

Google LLC · AS15169

Overview

8.8.4.4 is the secondary resolver of Google Public DNS. It is meant to be configured as the second DNS server alongside 8.8.8.8 so that if a query to the primary fails, the client retries the secondary. Functionally and operationally the two are identical — same anycast network, same policies, same protocols.

Common use cases

Always configure both 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 together. A single DNS server is a single point of failure: if the primary resolver becomes unreachable from your network, queries time out until the operating system falls back to the secondary. With both configured, switchover is automatic.

Technical details

8.8.4.4 sits in 8.8.4.0/24, also operated by Google under AS15169. It supports the same protocols as 8.8.8.8: classic DNS over UDP/TCP port 53, DNS-over-TLS on 853, and DNS-over-HTTPS at dns.google. DNSSEC is enabled.

Frequently asked questions

Is 8.8.4.4 the same as 8.8.8.8?

Operationally yes — same service, same policies. The two IPs exist so clients can configure a primary and a secondary resolver for redundancy.

Should I use 8.8.4.4 instead of 8.8.8.8?

You should use both. Configure 8.8.8.8 as primary and 8.8.4.4 as secondary.
