@olivierlambert I have just made sure I'm updated and the same condition is there with the multiple connections, plus I updated my xcp-ng server master and other pool client.

This is what I see when XOA client is up and running it has hundreds of connections"

Note the 226 client connections next to the computer icon. This occurs as soon as I boot the XOA vm.

The A2:EC:7E:F2:66:D7 MAC address is xcp-ng as I've noticed even prior to this.

I'm speculating that perhaps its due to licensing, updates and connectivity to be able to do these types of activities.

I'm just curious to know why so many connections?

Anyone have any idea about these connections?

I was just setting up my new router that shows numbers of client connections and was struck by suddenly having hundreds of client connections on my router as static connections where I should have a dozen or so at this stage. Then I noticed I only had the amount of ip.addresses I should on the router but on one ip.address it shows I had over 200 clients coming in on that ip.address. I couldn't ping the ip.address or get to it any other way. Then I proceeded to look up the mac address which doesn't show as a registered MAC address in any MAC address lookup tool which from experience meant it was an XCP-Ng MAC and this happened to belong to the XOA client.

I have shutdown the client for now and will use XCP-ng Center.

My question is why would there be 200+ connections coming in over XOA? That seems like a security issue.
