Oh, Christ... In plain old English it should have said: If you match the traffic for HTTP inspection in your custom class than the ASA will not match the same HTTP traffic in the default class. Correct ?

I take this to mean that if the packet matched the FIRST class map you have there matching on the ACL and it ALSO matched the class default policy, but the "feature type" was the same (inspect) that the action taken would be solely based on the first match (deny the flow in this case). What am I missing? Feature Matching Guidelines Within a Policy Map See the following guidelines for how a packet matches class maps in a policy map: 1. A packet can match only one class map in the policy map for each feature type. 2. When the packet matches a class map for a feature type, the security appliance does not attempt to match it to any subsequent class maps for that feature type. 3. If the packet matches a subsequent class map for a different feature type, however, then the security appliance also applies the actions for the subsequent class map, if supported. See the "Incompatibility of Certain Feature Actions" section for more information about unsupported combinations. For example, if a packet matches a class map for connection limits, and also matches a class map for application inspection, then both class map actions are applied. If a packet matches a class map for HTTP inspection, but also matches another class map that includes HTTP inspection, then the second class map actions are not applied.
