A null route or black hole route is a network route (routing table entry) that goes nowhere. Matching packets are dropped (ignored) rather than forwarded, acting as a kind of very limited firewall . The act of using null routes is often called blackhole filtering .
To deal with this problem, the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) has set up three special DNS servers called "blackhole servers". Currently the blackhole servers are: [7]
A Domain Name System blocklist, Domain Name System-based blackhole list, Domain Name System blacklist (DNSBL) or real-time blackhole list (RBL) is a service for operation of mail servers to perform a check via a Domain Name System (DNS) query whether a sending host's IP address is blacklisted for email spam.

NTSB officials give an update on the deadly D.C. plane and Black Hawk helicopter collision. Secretary of State Marco Rubio makes first official foreign trip to Panama.

This state is referred to as a black hole connection. [7] Some implementations of PMTUD attempt to circumvent this problem by inferring that large payload packets have been dropped due to MTU rather than link congestion. One such scheme is standardized under RFC 8899, Datagram Packetization Layer Path MTU Discovery (DPLPMTUD). [3]
When damaging content is found, local PSB officials can be dispatched to investigate or make arrests. However, by late 2007, the Golden Shield Project proved to operate sporadically at best, as users had long adapted to internet blocking by using proxy servers, among other strategies, to make communications and circumnavigate to blocked content ...
The Blackhole exploit kit was, as of 2012, the most prevalent web threat, where 29% of all web threats detected by Sophos and 91% by AVG are due to this exploit kit. [1] Its purpose is to deliver a malicious payload to a victim's computer. [2]
