Lists all rules of the ufw firewall with a number in square brackets, split into target, action and source. IPv6 rules appear as separate entries marked (v6). The numbers are needed for ufw delete <nummer> and ufw insert <nummer>.

Note: If it only shows Status: inactive, ufw is installed but not filtering anything.
