Allow TCP 2080 (Autodesk NLM). Replace <source> with the network/host that should reach it.

firewalld

sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --add-rich-rule='rule family="ipv4" source address="<source>" port port="2080" protocol="tcp" accept'

Allow TCP 2080 (Autodesk NLM) from <source>. Run 'firewall-cmd --reload' afterwards.

nftables

Rules are generated only for transports marked active for this port. They default to an inbound allow with an explicit source placeholder — never any. Review direction, scope, and rule precedence before applying in production.
