DNS 1 FORMERR vs 5 REFUSED
Both DNS 1 (FORMERR) and 5 (REFUSED) belong to the DNS Response Codes (RCODEs) category. 1 indicates that format error. The name server was unable to interpret the query due to a malformed DNS message. Meanwhile, 5 means that query refused. The name server refuses to perform the requested operation for policy reasons.

The server rejected your query due to access control — for example, a recursive resolver that only serves its own network, or a zone transfer blocked by ACL.
Cara Memperbaiki
Check the server's allow-query, allow-recursion, or allow-transfer ACLs. If you are not authorized to use this resolver, switch to a public DNS service.
