Extended ACLs. A “Standard” ACL allows you to prioritize traffic by the Source IP address. An “Extended” ACL provides greater control over what traffic is prioritized.

What are 5 types of errors handled by ICMP messages?
ICMP uses the source IP address to send the error message to the source (originator) of the datagram. Five types of errors are handled: destination unreachable, source quench, time exceeded, parameter problems, and redirection (see figure1).

Why is no ICMP blocked because of permit IP any line?
Just a quick point. If the line is moved to the bottom of the access-list then no ICMP will be blocked because of the permit ip any any line. Hence the reason i reordered the ACL. 10-10-2008 12:39 PM
What does stateful inspection of ICMP packets do?
Access lists complement Cisco IOS firewall ICMP inspection. Stateful inspection of ICMP packets is limited to the most common types of ICMP messages that are useful to network administrators who are trying to debug their networks. That is, ICMP messages that do not provide a valuable tool for the internal network administrator will not be allowed.
Do you need a permit IP to start a ping?
You don’t need a permit ip any any to start the ping from inside but you would need an echo entry if you had an acl applied to inside interface. Note that is echo not echo-reply. You have to think of it in terms of the direction of the packet as to what you need to match.
