Not sure about a lint checker and router ACLs unfortunately don't show a
hit count like PIX ones. So the only option is probably to add a log
keyword to your permit statements and then watch the logs to see if the
statements are being hit.

As for older ones it maybe a bit late for existing ones, but there is a
remark keyword in modern IOS(s?) which makes it very handy for
remembering why a certain line was there.

Has anyone seen or heard of a Cisco ACL lint checker to validate whether
a certain acl is being utilized or at all.  What about old acls that
have been around for a while, and no one understands why they were
inserted in the first place.
