Hrm,
I suppose I could drop a mirror on the port that the internal device is using 
and see what's being done then.



Thanks for that insight!

ACL hit count logging on the PIX/ASA is based on traffic flow matching rather 
than individual packet matching.  Flow being a session between Src IP, Dst IP, 
and possibly Port Pair.  My guess is that the traffic flow initiated on one 
port (the one where the hit count goes up), then got redirected to a different 
port.  Being the same flow, I wouldn't expect the hit count to go up on the 
"redirected to" port.  Also, the PIX/ASA only logs one hit count per flow - so 
don't be surprised if you know the ACL is being matched several times, but the 
hit counter only increases by a few.  Again, it is based on unique flow "hits".

Weird I know... but PIX/ASA Access List logging is a bit different than IOS 
logging.

HTH,
Aaron
