Would you use the least statement to accomplish this task?

Hi All,

If you were asked to configure a route-map to match the following routes:

72.164.208.0/24
72.164.240.0/24
72.172.208.0/24
72.172.240.0/24

Would you create an ACL with 4 entries or take the trouble to "compact" the
entries into a single statement (in this case, it can be done), e.g.

access-list 1 permit 72.164.208.0 0.8.32.255

which matches all the above 4 routes, all the same.

I guess unless the question asks to use the least statement to accomplish
the task, I will just configure one ACE per route to be safe.

Any opinion is welcome.

Thank you.

B.Rgds,
Lim TS
