Question 1090
An inbound IOS IPv4 ACL currently evaluates `10 permit ip any any` before `20 deny ip host 192.0.2.77 any`. A packet sourced from 192.0.2.77 still passes. Which edit directly fixes this filtering logic while keeping the general permit for other sources?
Explanation
Correct Answer
IOS ACLs use the first matching ACE, so the first broad permit wins; the targeted host deny must be evaluated earlier.
Incorrect Answers
The earlier permit still matches and ends evaluation before the later deny.
Later ACEs are not reached after an earlier explicit permit; placement must precede the broad match.
Broadening the source match does not overcome first-match evaluation order.
