Hi,

Just joined and currently working on lab 9 of the IPExpert Workbook. When I
look at the latest downloaded final configuration for question 2 (R4's
lambeau ACL), it specifically lists a line matching return traffic for web
servers followed by a line matching return traffic from FTP servers:

 permit tcp 10.1.1.0 0.0.0.255 eq www any
 remark that line covers the replies from web servers on the inside
 permit tcp 10.1.1.0 0.0.0.255 any established
 remark that line is necessary for the FTP server responses since ports vary

Would the answer not also be possible to be the following:

1. Just the established line

or

2. add gt 1024 to the FTP entry (not a stated requirement, though, I think)

Further, the answers seem to take server ports into account, but not client
ports, when specific entries are asked and to allow remaining traffic, if
only certain flows are explicitly stated to be blocked.
Is this normal lab practice, so to speak, or is it typically something to
ask the proctor?

Kind regards,

Kim Blom
