Looking at my UniFi dashboard today I saw that one of my EISY hubs has been bombarding my network with traffic for the last week. Looks like over 500mb per day. I looked at the error log and saw nothing unusual. Then I opened the event viewer and turned on debug and it looks like something is crazy with the time server. I rebooted the hub and it went away but generated something almost 1.5 GB of traffic over the last week. I think this happened when I updated to 5.8.0. Did not open a ticket since the problem went away  - but posting here for awareness and comment.

Changed name of post to reflect issue

Still a mystery - traffic started Saturday morning at 2am and ended when I did the reboot today

(and there is nothing in the log at that time other than some current voltage level on an energy plug that reports every 5 minutes)

Oh wow, traffic started again this morning at 3am - I am opening a ticket:

OK, I did this to myself. Michel set me on the right track when he told me I had created a program with an infinite loop.

So, over the weekend I was updating my config and changed a bunch of devices. When going through the programs looking for places I had to change devices which no longer existed I looked at the Query All program and it had an error in the Then statement. I deleted that statement and put in Run Program - Query All - which just caused it to run itself. I should have put in:

        Set 'Barn EISY' Query

So, I assume this is fixed and will close this thread.  I don't know how the query all program got messed up originally but I know that I made it worse.

Thanks, Michel.

I am assuming the network traffic was generated by the query all action updating the portal
