Why is LibreELEC attempting to message my NAS?

  • Been very happy with LibreELEC for years, but after installing OpenMediaVault for my NAS, I am seeing a message attempt every 2 minutes from my LibreELEC Raspberry Pi to the NAS. I see the RPi's IP address in the diagnostic log of the NAS.

    I have not done anything to the LibreELEC to make it aware of a new NAS but I guess it is browsing the network.

    Thank you in advance.

  • If you install network-tools on LE. I’m going to guess it in upnp / mdns

    Code
    tcpdump host nasip # (if it is not broadcast traffic)
    
    # for broadcast traffic - I’ll leave that an an exercise for the reader. You could also create a pcap file and review via wireshark. But pretty sure that simple “tcpdump host nasip“ should get you heading in the right direction
  • Thank you all very much for your replies. While the network tools show the traffic, not sure I know why LibreELEC is showing up on the NAS diagnostics. Maybe it is just a general Network Browsing being performed by LibreELEC which OpenMediaVault is logging.
