Google Cache Page IP

[jjdesigns4u]

One of my clients sites is a site that gives you a seal to where if you are authorized to sell a product. The seal links to a certificate that shows the brands you carry and that you approved to sell them.

The seal has a security feature in it that if you try to put it on a page that is not in our system you are automatically redirected to a fraud warning page. Ususally that gets them to take the stolen seal off their page ASAP

Yesterday we were looking at some of our customers sites in Google and clicked on the cache link

Because the page with the seal is now on Google's server the page was automically redirected to the fraud page.

Of course our customers will not like this so we took the IP that the page was on and allowed it in our system

My question is....
Does Google use the same IP for all cached pages or do I need to put 100 different IP's in my system

There are different cache IP's for different datacenters.

You can use meta noarchive to keep Google from caching the pages, though.

[jjdesigns4u]

can't that would mean the clients home page would have that tag

that is not our place

Is they a way to know all of the IP's so I can add them all

[mcavic]

Oh, I see. Is it going by the Referrer variable?

There is a list of data centers here somewhere, but I don't know if there's just one cache IP for each data center, or lots more than that.

Datacenter 1 : www-ex216.239.33.100
Datacenter 2 : www-sj216.239.35.100
Datacenter 3 : www-va216.239.37.100
Datacenter 4 : www-dc216.239.39.100
Datacenter 5 : www-fi216.239.41.100
Datacenter 6 : www-ab216.239.51.100
Datacenter 7 : www-in216.239.53.100
Datacenter 8 : www-zu216.239.55.100
Datacenter 9 : www-cw216.239.57.100

The cache is on 104 at the moment on all dc's I checked, I don't know if it changes over time.

btw: www.google.com is at .37.99 for me now, not at 37.100.
