Hi All

I've noticed that my Arlo system is querying the above address *every* 5 minutes, even when the system is not armed. Already, such queries form 2-3% of all DNS traffic, which, one might say, is not a lot, although concerning to see that.

Does anyone know what these requests are for?

Cheers. 

 

Update 1: In this respect, Arlo beats Apple, according to my DNS monitoring tool.

 

Update 2: I've blocked requests to mcs.arlo.com and all is working fine 😎 Will keep you updated.
