Re: "CCIE Language"

Tom,

Some times SOME authors go overboard with their wording, but what makes you
a lot better in translating their wording? Knowing your options, if you
know your options, as you read the questions, you automatically start cross
eliminating choices and hopefully be left with only couple.

I always recommended to read the task once and then put your finger on
every word as read the same task for the second time and as you do that,
you start explaining that task to yourself again, this way you totally
cross eliminate your misunderstanding of the task.

As far as the task that you are reading, i have two comments:
Based on what you wrote, my choice would have been an ACL for TCP 1720.
As far as The UDP part, remember that RTP does not have ports. And this
would have been another line in the ACL
