Hi there,
We are currently unsure how PRTG should be able to generate that amount of traffic with simple network requests. Please check if the server is downloading windows updates or other updates which could explain this amount of traffic.
If not, how much sensors are you currently using? Which scanning interval are you using? For how long was the traffic recorded which sums up to "153.3 GB" (a year)?
Best regards.
