A numbered access-list is really a named access-list with a name that is
a number. Credit Brian Dennis with this little stupid router trick.

Rack2R6#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Rack2R6(config)#access-list 100 permit tcp any any
Rack2R6(config)#access-list 100 permit udp any any
Rack2R6(config)#access-list 100 permit ospf any any
Rack2R6(config)#access-list 100 permit eigrp any any
Rack2R6(config)#do show access-list 100
Extended IP access list 100
    permit tcp any any
    permit udp any any
    permit ospf any any
    permit eigrp any any
Rack2R6(config)#ip access-list extended 100
Rack2R6(config-ext-nacl)#no permit udp any any
Rack2R6(config-ext-nacl)#end
Rack2R6#show access-list 100
Extended IP access list 100
    permit tcp any any
    permit ospf any any
    permit eigrp any any

Cool huh?
