   change the routing of the DNS request of the website through IP Address:

   If you're referring to making a website's DNS requests resolve to a different IP address, there are several legitimate ways to do it depending on your goal:

   • Change the website's DNS record (if you own the domain):

     • Update the domain's A record (IPv4) or AAAA record (IPv6) at your DNS provider to point to the new server IP.
     • Wait for DNS propagation based on the record's TTL.

   • Override DNS resolution on a specific computer (for testing):

     • Edit the hosts file to map the domain to a specific IP address.
     • Example:

       203.0.113.10 example.com
       203.0.113.10 www.example.com
       

     • This only affects the local machine.

   • Use a reverse proxy or load balancer:

     • Point the domain to a proxy, which then forwards requests to one or more backend IP addresses.

   • Use a custom DNS server:

     • Configure a DNS server under your control to return a different IP for the domain.

   If, instead, you mean intercepting or redirecting DNS requests for a website you don't own or bypassing someone else's DNS routing, I can't help with instructions for redirecting or interfering with third-party network traffic.

   Can you clarify your goal? For example:

   • Are you the owner of the domain?
   • Are you trying to migrate a website to a new server?
   • Are you testing a website before changing DNS?
   • Are you configuring a local development environment?
