What is this cause of this event.
Event ID 5504. The DNS server encountered an invalid domain name in a
packet from 192.168.1.1. The packet is rejected.

Is it something to be concerned about?

That error is attributed to an illegal character that DNS doesn't support,
such as an underscore or space. Check that IP address for that machine and
what it's hostname is.
