Yesterday afternoon I had a bunch of ssdpTerm requests that I believe are typical when using the Hue Bridge integration...

The amount of these did seem to be more than I generally remember seeing, so wondering if this amount of activity is normal, or if it was indicating something wasn't right on my hub.

I ask in part because later yesterday evening around 11:00 pm my wife and I noticed that both Zibee and Z-Wave devices in automations were not turning on. Was too late to troubleshoot at that time so just did the shut down/pull power/30s/restore power dance (and things seemed normal again) and went to bed.

@bertabcd1234 - Wondering if this flurry of ssdpTerm requests is within normal range, or if they were somewhat of a canary in a coal mine, indicating that something wasn't right w/my hub?

I did check memory, temp, and CPU-use level logs and they were all normal yesterday.

This is sent by the integration periodically (unless disabled) to verify that the Bridge IP address is still the same. I don't see anything too unusual there; all the activity at the same time is apparently different devices on your network responding to this UPnP request. If these groups of activity happen more frequently, that might be able to be addressed, though I'm not sure it should cause any problems.
