Hi,
I seem to be having trouble getting ACL sequence numbers to behave how I would expect them to on a 7100 running IOS 12.3, and I'm not sure if I'm expecting the wrong behavior or if something is being screwy.
I create an access-list
ip access-list standard test
> 10000 deny 10.10.10.1
later, I add to the list
ip access-list standard test
> 9000 deny 10.10.10.2
> 11000 deny 10.10.10.3
and later still, I add some more.
ip access-list standard test
> 8000 deny 10.10.10.4
> 12000 deny 10.10.10.5
show ip access-lists results in the following
Standard IP access list test
> 9000 deny 10.10.10.2
> 11000 deny 10.10.10.3
> 10000 deny 10.10.10.1
> 8000 deny 10.10.10.4
> 12000 deny 10.10.10.5
as you can see, the list is definitely not sorted by it's sequence numbers, in fact the placement of the rules I added later one almost seems random.
Am I doing something wrong? or misunderstanding the point of sequence numbers? They seem like they would be incredibly useful If they actually caused rules to be sorted in increasing order.
Thanks,
Lucas
