I’m trying to setup a non-exit tor relay at home and but I am getting the message Your server has not managed to confirm reachability for its ORPort(s) at <redacted>:443 and [<redacted>]:443. Relays do not publish descriptors until their ORPort and DirPort are reachable. Please check your firewalls, ports, address, /etc/hosts file, etc.
the complete notice log file is as below:

I’m using MX linux and below is the system info:

(bookworm)
The default firewall enabled in MX linux is Gufw which has the below config in its default profile
[fwBasic]
status = enabled
incoming = deny
outgoing = allow
routed = disabled
Any help/direction/guidance on what is the mistake or what steps are needed would be of great help.
