all is written in the message - which client (mac, ip, port) is the root of this message. Normaly there is no impact. mostly this is a normal client or server. You can check with wireshark (if the messages are there often) which mc traffic is the reason.

any tips on how to get rid of it?

probably "no swlog output console" will stop this and everything else

maybe ; swlog appid ipni subapp dos level off/info
