    Study Notes

    Configuring ACL for TCP ACK Packets

    • To allow packets with ACK in the TCP header, an ACL entry is required
    • The correct ACL entry includes the "established" keyword, indicating that the packet has the ACK flag set
    • The correct answer is B. access-list 10 permit tcp any any eq 21 established
    • The "established" keyword is used to match packets that are part of an established connection, which includes ACK packets
    • Option B is the correct answer because it includes the "established" keyword, which ensures that only packets with the ACK flag set are permitted

    Configuring ACLs for TCP Packets

    • To permit packets with an ACK in the TCP header, an ACL entry is required.
    • The correct ACL entry is: access-list 10 permit tcp any any eq 21 established
    • This entry allows TCP packets on port 21 that have the ACK flag set, indicating acknowledgement of received data.
    • The established keyword is crucial, as it ensures only packets belonging to an established connection are permitted.
