Cloudflare Images CDN not working correctly

HI there! We configured Cloudflare and uploaded images to Cloudflare. We are located in Kazakhstan but when we checked ip address of images using dev tools always shows California/San-Francisco server. Is it means that Cloudflare is not working or not?

Hi there,

Cloudflare uses AnyCast network - which means we broadcast the same IP to all our datacenters. There is no country/region specfic IP prefixes for each datacenter and all our IP’s geo-locate to US. You can read more about anycast here - https://www.cloudflare.com/learning/cdn/glossary/anycast-network/

You can tell if Cloudflare is working by looking at the HTTP response headers, if you see server: cloudflare and the image is loading, this is a good sign that Cloudflare is working.

Damian
