300-410 Practice Question: In a standard IPv4 ACL, what is the range of…

In a standard IPv4 ACL, what is the range of valid numbers for the access-list number?

⚠ Common exam trap

Cisco often tests the expanded standard ACL range (1300-1999) to catch candidates who only memorize the original 1-99 range, assuming standard ACLs are limited to that smaller set.

Correct answer & explanation

1-99 and 1300-1999

Standard IPv4 ACLs use access-list numbers 1-99 and 1300-1999 to filter traffic based solely on source IP address. The expanded range 1300-1999 was introduced to provide additional standard ACL identifiers beyond the original 1-99, allowing more granular control without overlapping with extended ACL ranges.
