Thank you for using Ubuntu and reporting a bug. We restrict the
interface name simply for input validation and after doing a bit of
research, I see no reason why we can't allow '-' and '_' in the
interface name. I'll adjust trunk for that, but it may be expanded
further.

Status in ufw package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
Is there a reason to restrict interface's name in ufw?
Should ufw accept what iptables accept as iface name?
I've a vpn with lot of nodes, its iface name contain a '-' so cannot
use ufw on it.
I've found the check here and cannot found a reason for it:
