350-401 Practice Question: Runs the following command on Router R1: R1# show…

A network engineer runs the following command on Router R1:

R1# show ip interface GigabitEthernet0/1 | include access list

Inbound access list is not set Outbound access list is 140

R1# show access-lists 140

Extended IP access list 140

10 permit tcp 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255 any eq 443 (25 matches)
    
20 deny tcp any any eq 443 (10 matches)
    
30 permit ip any any (50 matches)

Based on this output, what can be concluded?

⚠ Common exam trap

Cisco often tests the distinction between inbound and outbound ACL application, and the trap here is that candidates see 'permit ip any any' and mistakenly think all traffic is allowed, ignoring the order-specific deny of HTTPS from other sources.

Answer choices

Why each option matters

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Correct answer & explanation

HTTPS traffic from sources outside 192.168.1.0/24 is denied when exiting the interface.

The ACL 140 is applied outbound on GigabitEthernet0/1. It permits TCP port 443 (HTTPS) traffic only from source 192.168.1.0/24, then denies all other HTTPS traffic, and finally permits all other IP traffic. Since the deny statement (line 20) blocks HTTPS from any source not matching the permit (line 10), traffic from outside 192.168.1.0/24 is denied when exiting the interface, making option A correct.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • HTTPS traffic from sources outside 192.168.1.0/24 is denied when exiting the interface.

    Why this is correct

    Entry 20 denies HTTPS from any source not matching entry 10, so HTTPS from other subnets is denied outbound.

  • All HTTPS traffic is permitted outbound.

    Why it's wrong here

    Entry 20 denies HTTPS from sources not in 192.168.1.0/24.

  • The ACL is applied inbound on the interface.

    Why it's wrong here

    The output shows 'Outbound access list is 140'.

  • The ACL permits all traffic from 192.168.1.0/24.

    Why it's wrong here

    It only permits HTTPS from that subnet, not all traffic.

Visual reference

Source Router + ACL permit 10.0.0.0/8 deny any Server 10.0.0.5 ✓ 192.168.1.1 ✗ dropped ACLs evaluate top-down; first match wins — implicit deny all at end
