Out of curiosity, could you try and create another ACL (say 121 for
example) that exactly mirrors ACL 120 and apply in inbound and keep ACL 120
outbound?

Subject: DNS vs. ICMP

Folks,
I have access server (3640) with NM-8AM configured for dialup , I tried to
put access-list to block the ICMP echo and echo-reply on the ingress and
egress of its Ethernet interface. When I put the access-list as following:

Access-list 120 deny icmp any any echo
Access-list 120 deny icmp any any echo-reply
Access-list 120 permit ip any any

Interface Ethernet e0/0
Ip access-group 120 in
Ip access-group 120 out

I found that the dialup users lost the browsing and DNS is not working but
when I removed the access-list from the input and keep it only on the output
, everything went good and browsing back again!!! Do u know any relation
between DNS and ICMP!?

Regards
