Welcome to the Snare Wizard

...

    • Enable or disable the Basic Snare Firewall, which uses the UFW firewall to configure IPTables. For normal operation of the Snare Central, the firewall should be left enabled; it will only block those ports that do not have an associated snare-related service active.
      • When the Snare Firewall checkbox is enabled, the currently active firewall rules will be shown in the Active Rules section, and the Backup & Restore section is available. It is possible to make a backup of the current rules and restore them if required.

      • Clicking on any active rule will bring the edit rule form where you can delete the selected rule or change some parameters like destination port number, transport protocol, policy and origin.
      • It is important to note that when adding a new rule, by default ufw will create the same rule for both TCPv4 and TCPv6. However when deleting a rule you need to delete the TCPv4 and the TCPv6 separately.
    • More information on UFW can be found at:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW
