Asked by avidofood
In my Inbound Rules I’ve set these rules:
Type: Custom Protocol: TCP Portrange: 6002 for IPv4 and 6
But still if I go to https://ping.eu/port-chk/ my port is still closed!
Any ideas?
I don’t use the local firewall only the DO Cloud Firewall

Hello, @avidofood
If you’re running on Ubuntu droplet you can try to open the port on ufw and then to disable it again. I had a similar issue and this helped.
Is you’re application already listening on this port or have an active connection?
You can also test the connection using telnet:
