We pick c.root-servers.net, one of the 13 root servers (1), and ask it about a.com.mx and learn that mx is delegated to six name servers (2), so we ask x.mx-ns.mx where we learn that a.com.mx is delegated to two name servers, including ns2.theplanet.com (3), so we ask that one and get the following answer:
A.com.mx is a domain controlled by two domain name servers at theplanet.com having a total of four IP numbers. Some of them are on the same IP network. Incoming mail for a.com.mx is handled by seven mail servers at googlemail.com and google.com having a total of 59 IP numbers. There are 26 duplicated IP numbers. Some of them are on the same IP network. A.com.mx has one IP number (74.52.89.106), but the reverse is 6a.59.344a.static.theplanet.com.
