9.18 BIND not iterated over all authoritative nameservers

Doing some checking on this locally trying to understand what may be 
happening.  I stumbled across this:

view.bankeasy.com is a cname to view.gtm.bankeasy.com

However if I try to dig for gtm.bankeasy.com that is where the oddities 
show up:

dig @ns1.dakotanames.com gtm.bankeasy.com

; <<>> DiG 9.18.18 <<>> @ns1.dakotanames.com gtm.bankeasy.com
; (1 server found)
;; global options: +cmd

Not sure how this effects things, but the SOA record shows bad info 
'.local.' I wonder if this is where the issue is. The authoritive 
nameserver and responsible party records are not resolvable.

Maybe someone with more knowledge of DNS and the use of .local. domain 
name can shed some light on this.
