Help to understand trace route, private IP blow external IP's

Joveice

Hello, I'm no network expert so I wonder what this private IP does below an ISP IP.

(I where doing debugging on high latency issues for a game)

See the list below, what does that private IP

Tracing route to api.bethesda.net [143.204.51.87]
over a maximum of 30 hops:

  1    <1 ms    <1 ms    <1 ms  10.0.0.1
  2     1 ms     1 ms     1 ms  193.75.36.1
  3     1 ms     1 ms     1 ms  10.130.7.53 <-- this one
  4     1 ms     1 ms     1 ms  62.63.63.166

I'm on a class A network, but I have no clue what 10.130.7.53 is, nor does it respond to any pings (ping command)
Shouldn't I be outside my network after the jump to 193.75.36.1?

For a non network tech dude, what does that really mean?

When you connect to your ISP you go through a DNS (usually hosted in a data centre/internet exchange), its the DNS server that converts the URL you entered into an IP address that can be routed to the server hosting the website you're trying to access. When your router goes outside of its local network it will always go to your ISPs DNS first.

 

What I think was happening was your router was connecting to the DNS, the DNS then forwarded you to another server hosted in the same exchange on a different subnet and the second server handled the address translation. Each time you're sent to a new server its called a bounce. Basically your packet was bounced from one subnet to a different subnet within the same network.

 

That's just a guess though, I could be totally wrong.
