I got started configuring some DNS reverse lookups for my firewall logs.

I am seeings these in the logs:

> [2017-02-07T10:11:18,041][ERROR][logstash.filters.dns] DNS: timeout on resolving address. {:field=\>"destination\_dns", :value=\>"104.244.43.135"}

While I get that reverse resolution is going to fail, is there way to have the plugin NOT log the failures?
