user4302: Please excuse the noob-ic question:
My block producer node shows 0 Total Tx and 0 Pending Tx on gLiveView:

However, my two relay nodes have non-zero total and pending tx values, and seem to only be going up. Here is a screenshot of one:

The BP is connected to the two relays, and the two relays are connected to each other as well as other relays. Is this going to be a problem for block production or is this expected/normal?
Thanks in advance!!

user4382: Possible solutions:
First: In your mainnet-config.json file, set "TraceMemPool": true
Then restart the node.

Second: Another issue is that there are no peers in. You need to add your block producer to the topology of the relay node(s).

Update: OP mentioned the issue being with the UFW configuration. For reference, here is an image of how I have my UFW setup on my stake pool. This is 4 Relay nodes, 1 Block Producer node and 1 Stand-By Block Producer node setup.
