My view/guestimation only here, so anyone is welcome to pick holes in it: I would apply 101 (the outgoing access list to the ethernet port). May as well drop the rubbish before the router processes it. I would also make it:
access-list 101 permit icmp x.x.54.0 0.0.1.255 any echo (equivalent to your two lines) access-list 101 deny icmp any any (denies all other icmp, otherwise your next line allowed everything including icmp) access-list 101 permit ip any any I would apply 102 as you have on the serial interface, with slight change. access-list 102 permit icmp any any echo-reply (presumably as you allowed echo outgoing, you want the replies) access-list 102 deny icmp any any (may as well block all other icmp) access-list 102 permit ip any any Of course this is just fictional to control icmp only. I've changed it about 4 times, so I've no doubt it could take some more changes.
