Server Version#: 1.25.9.5721  
Player Version#:

I am running PMS on a mac-mini M1  
Media is on a Synology NAS

My PMS Console keeps filling with data some of which look like errors.

How can I determine what is causing this and how I can fix it?

I have attached a few screenshots of the Server Console. Regarding the SSDP error related to 192.168.2.7. That device is an LG Washing machine. Not sure what to make of that - why would Plex be connected to or polling a washing machine?

I’d appreciate any help on getting to the root cause of what I am

You can ignore the SSDP parsing device errors.

Plex Media Server, like many applications, uses SSDP to discover devices on the network.

Occasionally a device replies in a format Plex cannot understand. When that happens, [PMS logs](https://support.plex.tv/articles/200250417-plex-media-server-log-files/) it as an error.

It is annoying, as it fills the log files, but it will not cause problems with Plex.

Those messages in the logs are: harmless can be ignored because PMS is overzealously reporting them just so you are informed (in case you’re wondering why PMS didn’t find your device). My Off-Topic comment was in regard to the Plex Media SSDP (PMSSDP) Reflection/Amplification DDoS Attack Mitigation Recommendations link. It has nothing to…
