Hi,

I'm trying to figure out how the ACL works when you enable both wireless and wired mode of the CPU ACL mode. When you setup an acl with inbound permit, does it apply this single ACL rule on both the LAN facing "wired" and the Client facing "wireless"?
Another example, if I setup and apply this rule:
<src add> <dest add> <protocol> <src prt> <dest prt> <direction> <action>
1 any any udp dns any any permit
2 any any udp any dns any permit
Does rule 1 means the WLC permit wireless client requesting DNS service to any dns server and at the same time also means that the WLC (mgmt) also can request DNS service from any dns server on the LAN side? I read on some ccie candidate's blog that when you set any any to the src and dest addresses, the direction will be "any" regardless of the set direction. Also do i need to apply rule 2 so that return traffic from the LAN side is permitted to the WLC, as well as from the WLC to the Wireless client?

Very puzzling, as I think the rules for a full session needs to be applied in both direction as applying only in 1 direction can cause a problem with the other direction due to implicit deny. This confuses further when you apply both wired and wireless cpu acl mode.
Any ideas?
