CBAC

Hi all,

Unlike Reflexive ACL, CBAC does not have any command command on the ACL
referencing the Inspect rule. My question is how the router know for
what ACL it should create temporary openings? Does the router work out
the ACL it needs to "modify" based on the path the internally generated
traffic takes?

Example below is takend directly from the Doc CD.

Topology:

LAN ------ R1 --------- WAN
      E0/0 E0/1

Config:
         
access-list 100 deny tcp any any
access-list 100 deny udp any any
access-list 100 permit icmp any any echo-reply
access-list 100 permit icmp any any time-exceeded
access-list 100 permit icmp any any packet-too-big
access-list 100 permit icmp any any traceroute
access-list 100 permit icmp any any unreachable
access-list 100 deny ip any any

interface Ethernet1/1
 ip access-group 100 in

ip inspect name hqusers rtsp
ip inspect name hqusers h323

interface Ethernet1/0
 ip inspect hqusers in

My question is if the router has another interface e.g. Ethernet 1/2,
with a different ACL applied inbound, will the router create openings
for ACL 101 as well?

interface Ethernet1/1
 ip access-group 101 in

Is there any way to check what temporary openings the router created
(other than show ip inspect sessions)? I means something similar to show
ip access-list (in case of the reflexive ACL)

Below is the link where the example taken from.
