Question

A network associate is adding security to the configuration of the Corp1 router. The user on host C should be able to use a web browser to access financial information from the Finance Web Server. No other hosts from the LAN nor the Core should be able to use a web browser to access this server. Since there are multiple resources for the corporation at this location including other resources on the Finance Web Server, all other traffic should be allowed.

The task is to create and apply a numbered access-list with no more than three statements that will allow ONLY host C web access to the Finance Web Server. No other hosts will have web access to the Finance Web Server. All other traffic is permitted.
Access to the router CLI can be gained by clicking on the appropriate host.

All passwords have been temporarily set to “cisco”.
The Core connection uses an IP address of 198.18.196.65
The computers in the Hosts LAN have been assigned addresses of 192.168.33.1 – 192.168.33.254
Host A 192.168.33.1
Host B 192.168.33.2
Host C 192.168.33.3
Host D 192.168.33.4
The servers in the Server LAN have been assigned addresses of 172.22.242.17 – 172.22.242.30
The Finance Web Server is assigned an IP address of 172.22.242.23.
The Public Web Server is assigned an IP address of 172.22.242.17

Answer and Explanation

(Note: If you are not sure how to use access-list, please check out my access-list tutorial at: http://www.9tut.com/access-list-tutorial, also some modifications about the access-list have been reported so you should read the “Some modifications” section at the end of this question to understand more. You can also download this sim to practice (open with Packet Tracer) here: http://www.9tut.com/download/9tut.com_Access-list_sim2.pkt

Corp1>enable (you may enter “cisco” as it passwords here)

We should create an access-list and apply it to the interface which is connected to the Server LAN because it can filter out traffic from both Sw-2 and Core networks. The Server LAN network has been assigned addresses of 172.22.242.17 – 172.22.242.30 so we can guess the interface connected to them has an IP address of 172.22.242.30 (.30 is the number shown in the figure). Use the “show running-config” command to check which interface has the IP address of 172.22.242.30.

Corp1#show running-config

access_list_sim_show_running.jpg

We learn that interface FastEthernet0/1 is the interface connected to Server LAN network. It is the interface we will apply our access-list (for outbound direction).

Corp1#configure terminal

Our access-list needs to allow host C – 192.168.33.3 to the Finance Web Server 172.22.242.23 via web (port 80)

Corp1(config)#access-list 100 permit tcp host 192.168.33.3 host 172.22.242.23 eq 80

Deny other hosts access to the Finance Web Server via web

Corp1(config)#access-list 100 deny tcp any host 172.22.242.23 eq 80

All other traffic is permitted

Corp1(config)#access-list 100 permit ip any any

Apply this access-list to Fa0/1 interface (outbound direction)

Corp1(config)#interface fa0/1
Corp1(config-if)#ip access-group 100 out

Notice: We have to apply the access-list to Fa0/1 interface (not Fa0/0 interface) so that the access-list can filter traffic coming from both the LAN and the Core networks. If we apply access list to the inbound interface we can only filter traffic from the LAN network.

In the real exam, just click on host C and open its web browser. In the address box type http://172.22.242.23 to check if you are allowed to access Finance Web Server or not. If your configuration is correct then you can access it.

Click on other hosts (A, B and D) and check to make sure you can’t access Finance Web Server from these hosts.

Finally, save the configuration

Corp1(config-if)#end
Corp1#copy running-config startup-config

(This configuration only prevents hosts from accessing Finance Web Server via web but if this server supports other traffic – like FTP, SMTP… then other hosts can access it, too.)

Notice: In the real exam, you might be asked to allow other host (A, B or D) to access the Finance Web Server so please read the requirement carefully.

Some modifications:

Modification 1:

permit host B from accessing finance server access-list 100 permit ip host 192.168.33.2 host 172.22.242.23
deny host B from accessing other servers (not the whole network) access-list 100 deny ip host 192.168.33.2 172.22.242.16 0.0.0.15
permit everything else access-list 100 permit ip any any

Modification 2:

Only allow Host C to to access the financial server access-list 100 permit ip host 192.168.33.3 host 172.22.242.23
Not allow anyone else in any way communicate with the financial server access-list 100 deny ip any host 172.22.242.23
Allow all other traffic access-list 100 permit ip any any

Modification 3:

- Host C should be able to use a web browser(HTTP)to access the Finance Web Server access-list 100 permit tcp host 192.168.33.3 host 172.22.242.23 eq 80
- Other types of access from host C to the Finance Web Server should be blocked
- All access from hosts in the Core or local LAN to the Finance Web Server should be blocked
access-list 100 deny ip any host 172.22.242.23
(because the requirement says we can not use more than 3 statements so we have to use “any” here for the hosts in the Core and hosts in local LAN)
- All hosts in the Core and local LAN should be able to access the Public Web Server * access-list 100 permit ip any host
(If the question asks this, surely it has to give you the IP of Public Web Server) but in the exam you should use “access-list 100 permit ip any any”

Modification 4:

Host C should be able to use a web browser to access the financial web server access-list 100 permit tcp host 192.168.33.3 host 172.22.242.23 eq 80
Other types of access from host C to the finance web server should be blocked access-list 100 deny ip host 192.168.33.3 host 172.22.242.23
All hosts in the core and on the local LAN should be able to access the Public web server * access-list 100 permit ip any host
(The IP of Public Web Server will surely be given in this question) but in the exam you should use “access-list 100 permit ip any any”

* There are some reports about the command of “All hosts in the core and on the local LAN should be able to access the Public web server” saying that the correct command should be “access-list 100 permit ip any any”, not “access-list 100 permit ip any host (IP of Public Web Server)”. Although I believe the second command is better but maybe you should use the first command “access-list 100 permit ip any any” instead as some reports said they got 100% when using this command (even if the question gives you the IP address of Public Web Server). It is a bug in this sim.

(Note: Don’t forget to apply this access list to the suitable interface or you will lose points
interface fa0/1
ip access-group 100 out

And in the exam, they may slightly change the requirements, for example host A, host B instead of host C… so make sure you read the requirement carefully and use the access-list correctly)

I created this sim in Packet Tracer v5.2.1 so you can practice with it. You will need new version of Packet Tracer to open it (v5.1+).

accesslist_sim2_packet_tracer.jpg

Download this sim here

Notice: After typing the commands above, if you make a “ping” from other hosts (PC0, PC1, PC3) then PC4 (Finance Web Server) can still reply because we just filter HTTP traffic, not ICMP traffic. To generate HTTP traffic, select “Web Browser” in the “Desktop” tab of these PCs. When a web browser opens, type the IP address of Finance Web Server and you can see how traffic flows in Simulation Mode.

accesslist2_test_http.jpg

And notice that in the initial configuration of this sim the Core network can ping Finance Web Server. We have to create an access-list that can filter this traffic too.

    Safdar .. you need to apply the ACL in the OUBOUND interface

  9. pat
    August 15th, 2013

    safdar you are wrong if you are going to apply it inbound, at least in this example, read carefully

    “No other hosts from the LAN NOR THE CORE should be able to use a web browser……”

    if you want to block traffic from both, core and sw-2 lan, by using one access list you need to apply it outwards to the interface connecting to the server lan

    I passed my exam 986/1000

    Almost everything is the same but they change AS number in Eigrp and port numbers in VTP
    and aslo ACL:

    * Host C should be able to use a web browser(HTTP)to access the Finance Web Server
    * Other types of access from host C to the Finance Web Server should be blocked
    * All access from hosts in the Core or local LAN to the Finance Web Server should be blocked
    * All hosts in the Core and local LAN should be able to access the Public Web Server

    SO Config should look like this:

    access-list 100 permit tcp host 192.168.33.3 host 172.22.242.23 eq 80
    access-list 100 deny ip any host 172.22.242.23
    access-list 100 permit ip any any

    int fa0/1
    ip access-group 100 out

    passed the exam on my 3rd try..

    ACL, VTP and EIGRP labs..

    Doing the labs on 9tut is not ENOUGH.. I recommend you get packet tracer and download the sims from this site and do them over and over again.. Break stuff, change stuff apply the ACLs inbound and outbound learn to trouble shoot.. I have variations of the ACL, EIGRP and VTP labs on each test.

    You need to master subnetting (I use the magic number method)..

    Good luck..

    will be taking my exam on sept 27 but just incase modifications will appear on the exam, i just wanna understand this part:

    permit host B from accessing finance server access-list 100 permit ip host 192.168.33.2 host 172.22.242.23
    deny host B from accessing other servers (not the whole network) access-list 100 deny ip host 192.168.33.2 172.22.242.16 0.0.0.15
    permit everything else permit ip any any

    shouldn’t it be 0.0.0.7 the reverse subnet mask if we include 0 on 00010 on calculating the summary route for 172.22.242.16 and 172.22.242.23?

    pls help thanks.

    I passed my CCNA on the 6th of August scoring 907/1000. the simulation questions were Access Lists, EIGRP and VTP. In VTP commands, they disabled mac-address-table so you can use mac address-table incase the first one didn’t work. all the best guys. you can call me for more clarification on +2348030957364.

    passed today with 854/1000. labs were acl2,eigrp and vtp exactly as from this site. the show mac-address-table command on the sw on vtp lab was rejected and i failed to examine the mac address table of the switch 3.i dont know if there is any other command which will give us the mac address table. if so then study it. there were 47q and three labs only.9tut,spike662q and shekah are the sources.

    To DJCracky, on the test when you had router 1 that did not have a route for router 3, how did you resolve? I took the test and failed, but studying again.. Maybe I’m wrong but seemed like they blocked the ip route command to make a static route and also advertising the route via EIGRP?

    Can anybody help me about this?

    http://www.9tut.com/78-ccna-access-list-sim-2/

    Corp1(config)#interface fa0/1
    Corp1(config-if)#ip access-group 100 out
    it says that i should apply it on interface fa0/1 and out

    why is that?

    i thought it was on f0/0 and in
    or is it because it’s extended access list and should be put nearest to source (the LAN side)
    and why is it out?, not inbound, is it because that this ACL applied to the interface that face out (facing the out of the destination)?

    Can someone kindly enough tell me the rule about where to apply and the in/out ?
    I’ve read some articles and books and watch some videos (CBT Nuggets, Lammle) and tried to browse some explanation but still very confuse

    Please please help me i’ll have the exam very soon :)

    @Anonymous August 29th, 2013

    Extended ACLs:

    An extended ACL gives you much more power than just a standard ACL. Extended IP ACLs check both the source and destination packet addresses. They can also check for specific protocols, port numbers, and other parameters, which allow administrators more flexibility and control. But Standard ACL Only check both the source and destination packet addresses not Protocols (in our case TCP to deny www). For more you can read from:- http://computernetworkingnotes.com/network-security-access-lists-standards-and-extended/access-control-list.html

    And if you notice the instruction “All other traffic is permitted” that is from the Core and from Hosts LAN. if it is fa0/0 and in, you allow only Hosts LAN not the Core traffic so to support both traffic it should be fa0/1 and out.

    Explanation to the *. Why use the command “access-list 100 permit ip any any” and not “access-list 100 permit ip any host (IP of Public Web Server)”. Simple, if you read the scenario in the line 3 and 4 says: “Since there are multiple resources for the corporation at this location including other resources on the Finance Web Server, all other traffic should be allowed”. The Finance Web Server has resources for the Corporation others than WEB (WWW, eq 80). If you apply the second command you will no be able to ping the Finance Web Server from host A, B or D because you are applaying the acces list to the specific IP of the Public Web Server.

    Applaying the first command you are allowing all other resources to be reach not just to the Public Web Server but also to the Finance Web Server too.

    The line number 6 of the scenario confirm my point:”No other hosts will have web access to the Finance Web Server. All other traffic is permitted”.

    can someone help understand re this scenario

    “deny host B from accessing other servers (not the whole network)
    access-list 100 deny ip host 192.168.33.2 172.22.242.16 0.0.0.15″

    where did this ip 172.22.242.16 come from?

    thanks in advance!

  48. Ronny

    @Boy to find the network number. use #show running- config to view interface fa0/1 and subnet mask. from the interface ip add we can calculate network no. and use subnt mask to get wild-card. mask

  49. Johnboy
    September 1st, 2013

    @EIVAN:
    “i can’t apply ” access-list 100 permit ip host (ip) host (ip) eq 80 ” command in packet tracer. Does it something wrong with command or something else?”

    When permitting “IP” there is no need to add “EQ 80″. This applies to TCP.
