ufw
The imRAD system uses "ufw" as a default firewall configuration.[1] UFW is a front-end for iptables and is particularly well-suited for host-based firewalls. Users can therefore configure the firewall to allow certain types of network traffic to pass into and out of a system (for instance SSH or web server traffic). This is done by opening and closing TCP and UDP "ports" in the firewall. Additionally, firewalls can be configured to allow or restrict access to specific IP addresses (or IP address ranges).[2]
You can enable or disable using the ufw enable or ufw disable command in the configuration mode.
The status of ufw is initially in disable. Therefore, you may enable it if necessary.
We introduce basic syntax and examples. For more details, Please visit the https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW. or http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/bionic/man8/ufw.8.html.
Verifying ufw
LYSH@MyHostName# show ufw // ufw is in disable Status: inactive
The following example is a typical configuration when ufw is in enable.
LYSH@MyHostName# show ufw // ufw is in enable Status: active Logging: on (low) Default: deny (incoming), allow (outgoing), disabled (routed) New profiles: skip To Action From -- ------ ---- [ 1] 22 ALLOW IN 192.168.0.10 [ 2] 22 ALLOW IN 192.168.0.11 [ 3] 22 ALLOW IN 192.168.0.12
Even if the ufw is disabled, you can see the rules by input the show ufw added.
LYSH@MyHostName# show ufw added ufw allow from 192.168.0.10 to any port 22 ufw allow from 192.168.0.11 to any port 22 ufw allow from 192.168.0.12 to any port 22
ufw blocking log
If you want to see the ufw blocked logs, enter the show log ufw.
LYSH@MyHostName# show log ufw
If you use -w option, you can see the ufw blocked logs in real-time
LYSH@MyHostName# show log ufw -w 2021-04-26 14:55:27 4 0 MyHostName kernel: [7282110.099052] [UFW BLOCK] IN=eth0 OUT=MAC=00:15:5d:03:1e:57:00:04:96:34:b5:e9:08:00 SRC=192.168.0.100 DST=192.168.0.200...
Enable / Disable
You can enable or disable ufw in the configuration mode. Remember that you must change the default incoming rule to "allow" before enabling ufw and change the default incoming rule as "deny" after adding all rules. If not, Current or existing ssh connections are disrupted and some imRAD services can be blocked.
LYSH@MyHostName# configure
configure# ufw default allow
configure# ufw enable
configure# exit
LYSH@MyHostName# show ufw // ufw is in disable
Status: active
Logging: on (low)
Default: allow (incoming), allow (outgoing), disabled (routed)
New profiles: skip
To disable, just enter ufw disable.
LYSH@MyHostName# configure configure# ufw disable configure# exit
Note that you'd better add "allow" rules and set the default incoming rule to "deny". If you set the default incoming rule to "allow", there are too many rules to deny. Therefore, you have to change the incoming rule to "deny" after all rules
Enable Summary
| mode | command | Description |
|---|---|---|
| configuration | ufw default allow |
change the default incoming rule to "allow" |
| configuration | ufw enable |
enable ufw |
| user | show ufw |
verify the status of ufw |
| configuration | ufw allow {syntax} |
Add a "allow" rule. Remember that you should add all rules including the Required rules. |
| user | show ufw |
verify the status of ufw |
| configuration | ufw default deny |
change the default incoming rule to "deny" |
| user | show ufw |

rules
You can add a rule at the end of existing rule and can insert a rule at the specific position.
Basic syntax
LYSH@MyHostName# configure configure# ufw allow 22 // To allow incoming tcp and udp packet on port 22. configure# ufw allow 23/tcp // To allow incoming tcp packet on port 23. configure# ufw allow 24/udp // To allow incoming udp packet on port 24. configure# ufw allow ssh // To allow ssh by name. configure# ufw allow from 192.168.0.1 // To allow packets from 192.168.0.1. configure# ufw allow from 192.168.0.1/24 // To allow packets from 192.168.0.1/24.
To allow IP address 192.168.0.4 access to port 22 for all protocols.
configure# ufw allow from 192.168.0.4 to any port 22
To allow IP address 192.168.0.4 access to port 22 for all protocols using TCP.
configure# ufw allow from 192.168.0.4 to any port 22 proto tcp
To allow IP address 192.168.0.4/24 access to port 22 for all protocols using TCP.
configure# ufw allow from 192.168.0.4/24 to any port 22 proto tcp
Adding rules
You can add a "allow" rule at the end by type the command ufw allow {syntax}.
If you want to insert a rule before existing rule. enter the ufw insert {number} allow {syntax}.
LYSH@MyHostName# configure configure# ufw allow from 192.168.0.10 to any port 22 configure# ufw allow from 192.168.0.20 to any port 22 configure# exit
You can see the "ALLOW" rules that entered later has a higher number. In other words, If you add a rule, the rule is located at the end.
LYSH@MyHostName# show ufw Status: active Logging: on (low) Default: allow (incoming), allow (outgoing), disabled (routed) New profiles: skip To Action From -- ------ ---- [ 1] 22 ALLOW IN 192.168.0.10 [ 2] 22 ALLOW IN 192.168.0.20
If you want to add a rule at the specific number, enter the ufw insert {number} allow {syntax}. This will shift down the rules whose number is equal to or greater than the {number}.
LYSH@MyHostName# configure
configure# ufw insert 2 allow from 192.168.0.15 to any port 22
configure# exit
LYSH@MyHostName# show ufw Status: active Logging: on (low) Default: allow (incoming), allow (outgoing), disabled (routed) New profiles: skip To Action From -- ------ ---- [ 1] 22 ALLOW IN 192.168.0.10 [ 2] 22 ALLOW IN 192.168.0.15 [ 3] 22 ALLOW IN 192.168.0.20 // shift down
By default, no logging is performed when a packet matches a rule. Specifying log will log all new connections matching the rule, and log-all will log all packets matching the rule. For example, to deny and log the specific rules
LYSH@MyHostName# configure configure# ufw deny log from 192.168.0.100 to any port 22 proto tcp configure# exit
Now if the host(i.e. 192.168.0.100) connect to the device via ssh, you can see the "BLOCK" log.
LYSH@MyHostName# show log ufw
Required rules
You must specify these rules to have all imRAD services work properly. You'd better copy all the following rules and then paste them. Note that if your system does not need to serve some services, you can ignore their rules. Please refer to the ImRAD port to verify what the port number means.
LYSH@MyHostName# show ufw added ufw allow 80/tcp ufw allow 443/tcp ufw allow 6710/tcp ufw allow 1812/udp ufw allow 1813/udp ufw allow 1813/tcp ufw allow 1812/tcp ufw allow 18123/udp ufw allow 67/udp ufw allow 68/udp ufw allow 77/tcp ufw allow 647/tcp ufw allow 547/udp ufw allow 546/udp ufw allow 6010/udp
Specify your IP address to access via SSH.
configure# ufw allow from {your ip address} to any port 22 proto tcp
Deny/Reject
You can block from a host using by the "deny" or "reject" rule.
LYSH@MyHostName# configure configure# ufw deny from 192.168.0.50 to any port 22 proto tcp configure# ufw reject from 192.168.0.60 to any port 22 proto tcp
Note that If you use "deny", the ufw silently discards incoming packets. If you use "reject", the ufw sends back an error packet to the sender of the rejected packet. You'd better using the deny rule because the client must not know why the connection is not established.
Deleting rules
To delete a rule, simply prefix the original rule with delete or specify the rule number.
LYSH@MyHostName# configure configure# ufw delete allow from 192.168.0.15 to any port 22 or configure# ufw delete 2 configure# exit
LYSH@MyHostName# show ufw
Status: active
Logging: on (low)
Default: allow (incoming), allow (outgoing), disabled (routed)
New profiles: skip
To Action From
-- ------ ----
[ 1] 22 ALLOW IN 192.168.0.10
[ 2] 22 ALLOW IN 192.168.0.20
You can also delete a rule using added rule.
LYSH@MyHostName# show ufw added ufw allow from 192.168.0.10 to any port 22 ufw allow from 192.168.0.20 to any port 22 LYSH@MyHostName# configure configure# ufw delete allow from 192.168.0.20 to any port 22 configure# exit LYSH@MyHostName# show ufw Status: active Logging: on (low) Default: allow (incoming), allow (outgoing), disabled (routed) New profiles: skip To Action From -- ------ ---- [ 1] 22 ALLOW IN 192.168.0.10
default rule TO "deny"
If you definitely added all rules including the Required rules, change the default incoming rule to "deny". Be sure that there is a rule to access the SSH from your IP address before changing the default rule to "deny".
LYSH@MyHostName# configure configure# ufw default deny configure# exit
LYSH@MyHostName# show ufw
Status: active
Logging: on (low)
Default: deny (incoming), allow (outgoing), disabled (routed)
New profiles: skip
To Action From
-- ------ ----
[ 1] 22 ALLOW IN 192.168.0.10
[ 2] 22 ALLOW IN 192.168.0.20
reset
If you reset the ufw, all rules are deleting, default incoming rule is changed to "allow", and the ufw status is change to "disable".
LYSH@MyHostName# configure configure# ufw reset configure# exit LYSH@MyHostName# show ufw Status: inactive LYSH@MyHostName# show ufw added (None)
