Hi,
I was wondering a couple of things and wanted to know
if someone could shed some light this. Since, when
doing access lists (un-named), you use protocol number
ranges (eg.800-899 IPX Std., 100-199 IP ext., etc.)why
then do they "require" that you mention the protocol
when applying it to the interface (IP
access-group..bla bla bla) when by virtue of being
forced to use ranges this makes which protocol you are
using clear anyway. Or in reverse, why are ranges
necessary if you indicate which protocol it is you're
using when you apply the list.
Also, I am a bit confused as to when you would ever be
able to get any use out of using a wildcard mask on
the host portion of an IPX address in an access list.
What I mean by that is I can understand its use in IP
since you assign the Network.Host number but since IPX
uses the BIA of the card for the host, the odds of
having a range in any kind of sequence seems
astronomical.
Just some things that were bugging me... thanks.
