How to set a custom DNS server for cURL requests?

To set a custom DNS server for cURL requests, you can use the --dns-servers option in cURL. Here are the steps:

1. Determine the IP address of the desired DNS server that you want to use.

2. Open your terminal or command prompt.

3. Use the following syntax to make a cURL request with a custom DNS server:

Replace <DNS_SERVER_IP> with the IP address of the DNS server, and <URL> with the URL you want to request.

For example, if you want to set the DNS server to 8.8.8.8 and request http://example.com, you would use the following command:

By specifying the DNS server IP, cURL will use that server to resolve domain names instead of the default DNS server configured on your system.
