The show config and show running commands include in their listings any 
configured ACLs and any ACL assignments to VLANs. Refer to figure 9-11 
(page 9-36) and figure 9-12 (page 9-37) for examples. Remember that show 
config lists the startup-config file and show running lists the running-config file. 
Editing ACLs and Creating an ACL 
Offline 
Earlier sections of this chapter describe how to use the CLI to create an ACL. 
Beginning with “Using the CLI To Edit ACLs”, below, describes how to use the 
CLI to edit existing ACLs. However, you can also create or edit an ACL offline, 
then use a TFTP server to upload the ACL as a command file. The offline 
method (page 
9-56) provides a useful alternative to using the CLI for creating 
or editing large ACLs. 
Using the CLI To Edit ACLs 
The switch applies individual ACEs in the order in which they occur in an ACL. 
You can use the CLI to delete individual ACEs from anywhere in an ACL and 
to append new ACEs to the end of an ACL. However, the CLI method does not 
allow you to insert a new ACE between two existing ACEs. 
Using the CLI To Edit a Short ACL.  To insert a new ACE between exist-
ing ACEs in a short ACL, you may want to delete the ACL and then re-configure 
it by entering your updated list of ACEs in the correct order. 
Using the CLI to Edit a Longer ACL.  To insert a new ACE between exist-
ing ACEs in a longer ACL: 
a.  Delete the first ACE that is out of sequence and all following ACEs 
through the end of the ACL. 
b.  Re-Enter the desired ACEs in the correct sequence.
