[Bug 1401885] Re: Allowing all UDP/TCP traffic in

 

Ah! OK! :) About the ">" interface,

The ">" is a forward of the traffic, then you're telling ufw: forward
"from vboxnet0 > to > vboxnet0". I think in ufw you can't forward one
interface over the same. It'll add a warning in "Add" Gufw window about
this.

If you just want to set a rule for the vboxnet0 and not apply that rules
to other interfaces, it'd be as you said: "from vboxnet0 > to > not
forward".

Are all of your issues answered? :)
Best regards!

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?)
