Network traffic

[Smiley561]

Hi all,
I am new with Zoneminder and I have attached 2 cameras to a Rappberry Pi 4 with Raspbian Buster. Both are in "monitoring only" mode and I don't watch them. Why do I have network traffic yet?

Please help!

Zoneminder is accessing video stream from the cameras even in monitoring mode. Simple as that!
