The screenshots are from the VM associated NSG (In- and Outbound)?
Is there any other NSG associated with the subnet?

You should check the effective Security Rules -> VM -> Networking

Maybe this is helpful.

Hi,
Could you please try the following way of allowing ports through ufw

Enable: sudo ufw enable

Check status: sudo ufw status verbose

Check the status of incoming and outgoing connections status and make necessary changes
sudo ufw default allow incoming
sudo ufw default allow outgoing

When i run these commands i get
Default outgoing policy changed to 'allow'
Default incoming policy changed to 'allow'

Perfect ! Now, the port should listen when an application uses/opens that port. For ex. Port 22 is available as SSH is installed and configured to listen port 22
