ufw

One of my Proxmox VMs running Ubuntu 13.04 won't accept incoming trace routes while ufw is enabled.

What command do give ufw to allow incoming traceroute(6)s?

The following shows up in the syslog with ufw enabled:

50:15:15:aa:ae:8d:7d:e4:7a:97:08:00 SRC=79.236.233.97 DST=78.46.101.252 LEN=52 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=1 ID=33400 PROTO=UDP SPT=63757 DPT=33466 LEN=32

And the trace route just ends in starts after the Proxmox host machine.
