Orbi armor block it's own IP?

I am new to the Orbi system, this is the first one we ever bought.

 

We have an email server and I just noticed that Armor has a lot of messages for "Attack"  (See Attached Image)

 

The IP on the screenshot is the IP of the Email Server itself.

 

For some reason, Armor is saying the computer connecting to itself is being blocked as an attack.

 

There is no additional detail, does anyone know why this is happening?

You should be able to add it to the allowed list.

192.168.8.221 is a private IP address. What is the IP LAN subnet that the Orbi router has created?
