in. The ports need to be swapped
+ The firewall rule in ip6table is incorrect, and not allowing client requests

  -A ufw6-before-input -p udp -s fe80::/10 --sport 547 -d fe80::/10 --dport 546 
-j ACCEPT

  --sport and --dport are swapped
+ -d fe80::/10 needs to be removed
  
  Should be:
  
- -A ufw6-before-input -p udp -s fe80::/10 --sport 546 -d fe80::/10
- --dport 547 -j ACCEPT
+ -A ufw6-before-input -p udp -s fe80::/10 --sport 546 --dport 547 -j
