You need to open port 2096 TCP in your anti-DDoS system (discuss this with your host) and also on your local firewall.

  • Windows: run CMD as administrator and paste:
    netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="Port 2096 (TCP)" dir=in action=allow protocol=TCP localport=2096
  • Linux:
    • For UFW (Ubuntu, Debian): sudo ufw allow 2096/tcp
    • For Firewalld (CentOS, RHEL, Fedora): sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=2096/tcp && sudo firewall-cmd --reload
    • For iptables: sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 2096 -j ACCEPT
