This is what you get when you try to reverse-resolve a private IP range,
like 10/8, 172.16/12, 169.254/16 or 192.168/16.
The Internet Root servers refer you to the "blackhole" dns servers.  THese
address ranges are non-routable on the Internet, so they're useless as
destination IPs.

I am getting a security rejection with a service name of
"DNS/blackhole-1.iana.org". Can someone tell me what this means?

Thanks.
