continous DNS query to ROOT DNS server

Hi,
 
I understand that my system contacts AS112 server but not sure why my system is contacting AS112 ROOT servers
 
Can you tell me what i need to do at server level to stop this. I read the RFC but no where it clearly mentioned why this is happening. 
 
I have already configured forwarders in my system to send query to my gateway DNS server(running in BIND). then why my system is not using gateway DNS either for reverse DNS query mapping?
 
Regards
babu

Dears,
 
 I have DHCP server running in Windows Operating System(Windows 2003), i have configured forwarder towards gateway DNS server(running in redhat).
 
 When i check the firewall hits for DHCP server i can see, my DHCP server is sending too many DNS query towards ROOT DNS servers(192.175.48.1, 192.175.48.6, 192.175.48.42 and etc)
 
 Please guide us to stop this query at server level.

BabuThis is not a DHCP list.

This is not a Microsoft list.

Those aren't root nameserver addresses, they are AS112 addresses, see http://public.as112.net/node/8

Apparently you didn't define your own RFC 1918 zones.
