PS4 error code NW-31254-5 is an obscure error code that does not occur as often as the related error NW-31253-4, but often originates from a similar cause and can be corrected in the same way. An error message appears indicating that the DNS server's response is delayed or unstable.
This error occurs because the DNS servers are not working or have been put in incorrectly. DNS servers are very important because they map domain names (e.g. playstation.com) to IP addresses. Without them, the devices cannot be online.

The IP addresses of the websites you access on Google Chrome are stored by the Domain Name System or DNS. If you clear the Chrome browser's DNS cache, you can fix host connection errors that occur when you browse the web on a Windows PC. Such Google Chrome failures may include ERR_TIMED_OUT or similar errors.
The purpose of DNS is to allow the PC to access the IP addresses of the websites, especially if the IP servers change. If you encounter a host error or DNS error while browsing Google Chrome, the DNS cache has to be cleared to fix the error.

The Domain controllers whose copy of Active Directory contains references to other domain controllers in the forest attempt to replicate all locally held directory partitions during Windows startup as part of an initial synchronization or init sync.
At the attempt to boot with the latest DNS zone contents, Microsoft DNS servers that host AD-integrated copies of DNS zones delay the start of the DNS service for several minutes after Windows starts, unless Active Directory has completed its initial synchronization during Windows startup. In the meantime, Active Directory is delayed from inbound replicating directory partitions until it can resolve the CNAME GUID of its source domain controller to an IP address on the DNS servers used by the destination domain controller for name resolution. The duration of the hang when preparing network connections depends on the number of locally held directory partitions located in the Active Directory copy of a domain controller. The most domain controllers have at least five partitions (schema, configuration, domain, forest-wide DNS application partition, domain-wide DNS application partition) and can experience a boot delay of 15-20 minutes. The boot delay increases by the existence of additional partitions.
The DNS event ID 4013 in the DNS event log signifies that the DNS service startup has been delayed due to inbound replication of Active Directory partitions had not yet occurred.

In v5.4. this log entry is an expected behavior.
FortiGate searches for invalid/failed DNS traffic and marks it as action=dns or in the GUI as Action Deny: DNS error. This happens if the DNS query is unsuccessful and returns a state other than NOERROR. The firewall action itself is allow/pass, so the bad response is still forwarded from the server back to the requesting client. The session is marked with the Deny: DNS Error message.
Examples of invalid DNS traffic could be UDP packets on port 53 that are not DNS traffic, packets that are too large or with a bad checksum. This error message should also be displayed for DNS traffic that causes an error, such as the request to or reply from an invalid DNS server.

There may be in a situation where one of the DNS servers in the environment displays a problem where the zones are not loaded on the DNS console and the event IDs 4000 and 4007 are logged in the DNS event logs.
The DNS server is unable to open Active Directory. This DNS server is configured to obtain and use information from the directory for this zone and is unable to load the zone without it. Check that the Active Directory is functioning properly and reload the zone. The event data is the error code.
The DNS server is unable to open zone <zone> in the Active Directory from the application directory partition
<partition name>. This DNS server is configured to obtain and use information from the directory for this zone and is unable to load the zone without it. Check that the Active Directory is functioning properly and reload the zone. The event data is the error code.
If you try to open the DNS console, you will receive a pop-up labeled Access Denied. You see, the DNS server service is up and running.
If you try to perform an operation on the integrated AD zones with DNSCMD, you will receive Access Denied. This happens when this specific DC/DNS server has lost its secure channel with itself or the PDC. This can also happen in a single DC environment where this DC/DNS server carries all FSMO roles and points to itself as the primary DNS server.
