qvm-firewall command error

[Howard Chen]

Currently, I am configuring my NetworkIT qube firewall with the qvm-firewall command in dom0 terminal. However, when I entered this, it showed this following error:

[Howard@dom0 ~]$ qvm-firewall NetworkIT add dsthost 10.137.0.5

ValueError: dsthost

Can someone figure out what's going on with the code?

You havent given a valid rule: parameters are wrong and no action given.
Look at the manpage and qvm-firewall --help.

qvm-firewall NetworkIT add accept 10.137.0.5
OR
qvm-firewall NetworkIT add accept match dsthost=10.137.0.5/32
