an extended acl is either layer 3 or 4 -

OptionsOctalDump Member Posts: 1,722No. An ACL is not a protocol. Cisco ACLs can modify the behaviour of traffic from layer 2 up. Typically at CCNA level you deal with ACLs that modifying traffic at layer 3 and 4. Eg, block all traffic from this IP (layer 3), or allow access to only these ports (layer 4) at this IP.2017 Goals - Something Cisco, Something Linux, Agile PM

About to say that, ACL's are not protocols. You can have ACL is many different type of devices. -

ex. Blocking Port 80 web traffic to a specific subnet. (like a kiosk pc or something)2019 Goals
