Are you sure that both the source and destination satisfies the criteria
in rule 6? If a rule is restricting the source (ip and/or port), then
sources not meeting that criteria will get denied ... same with
destination.
If the rule isn't working for you, delete it and re-create it from
scratch. It's not unheard of that rules gets corrupted, although I
cannot dig up any documentation for this. So, delete it, and recreate
it, and see if that'll give you the result you are looking for.
