Chapter 15 Adding an Extended Access List
Monitoring Extended Access Lists
Adding Remarks to Access Lists
You can include remarks about entries in any access list, including extended, EtherType, IPv6, standard,
and Webtype access lists. The remarks make the access list easier to understand.
To add a remark after the last access-list command you entered, enter the following command:
Example
You can add remarks before each ACE, and the remark appears in the access list in this location. Entering
a dash (-) at the beginning of the remark helps set it apart from the ACEs.
hostname(config)# access-list OUT remark - this is the inside admin address
hostname(config)# access-list OUT extended permit ip host 209.168.200.3 any
hostname(config)# access-list OUT remark - this is the hr admin address
hostname(config)# access-list OUT extended permit ip host 209.168.200.4 any
