[Bug 1401885] Re: Allowing all UDP/TCP traffic in
Hi Jean! How are you? :)
In the Log tab I see this message: "ERROR: Bad source address".
Reviewing your screenshot, your "From IP" is this "192.168.168.56.0/24", it's a wrong IP, you set 2 times the "168" :) With this IP "192.168.56.0/24" is working for me.

Yes, it has to work, just add a rule with "Protocol = Both" and
"Direction = IN". Do you have a screenshot when you can't add it? :)
> displaying/editing some ufw rules is not possible within gufw
Yes, it's right. When you add a rule in Gufw, I'm store how that rule is
for the comment, edit... I want to say, a rule from ufw is complicate to
rebuild its command. Then, you can't edit ufw rules, I'm sorry.
Best regards Jean!

Title:
Allowing all UDP/TCP traffic in
Status in Gufw:
New
Bug description:
Environment: Ubuntu 14.10 - Gufw 14.10.1
------------------
The configuration is basic:
- Incoming: Deny
- Outgoing: Allow
- Routing: Allow
Now, suppose you need to allow internal communication, for example all
incoming UDP/TCP traffic from a VirtualBox VM on vboxnet0 sitting on a
particular subnet, 192.168.56.0/24 is used here.
Using Gufw to implement this simple setup does NOT work (UDP
communication is still blocked - TCP configuration is not shown):
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5fXyIn0-GDFbUpMaW0zVTlqYUE/view?usp=sharing
However, using ufw allows us to attain our goal:
ufw status
Status: active
To Action From
-- ------ ----
192.168.56.1 1:65535/tcp ALLOW 192.168.56.0/24
192.168.56.1 1:65535/udp ALLOW 192.168.56.0/24
This simple configuration allows all UDP/TCP communication in from
192.168.56.0/24 towards the host servers.
The problem is: it is not possible to use Gufw to make that setup, and
once it is done through ufw CLI, it is not possible to display or edit
it within Gufw.
As a summary:
--------------------
- allowing all TCP/UDP communication IN is not possible with Gufw (have I missed something?)
- displaying/editing some ufw rules is not possible within gufw (have I missed something?)
