Cisco access lists statements operate in sequential order (from the top
down).  If a packet matches the conditions of one statement, the rest of the
statements in the list are skipped.  Also note there is an implicit deny at
the end of the access list, so if the packet does not match any of the
statements in the list it is dropped.
