Why does ufw always block the SCTP protocol, regardless of what rules I have?

1

ufw seems to always block the SCTP protocol whatever rules I have set up:

For example, running enabled even with no rules:

 ufw reset
 ufw default allow incoming
 ufw enable

I still see SCTP blocked

tail -f /var/log/syslog | grep BLOCK

1Are you using NAPT? – Ron Maupin – 2019-01-15T20:40:37.073

@RonMaupin Not as far as I know - SCTP is coming into my network via an IPSEC VPN (StrongSwan) – rupello – 2019-01-15T20:44:29.940

2didn't find a solution to this as it seems ufw simply does not support sctp - I switched to using iptables rules directly – rupello – 2019-01-15T22:13:48.460
