If you have a tftp server handy you can tftp the modified ACLs section of your router in a file with the first line reading, "no access-list 177". It's a lot faster than paste. I haven't tried scp.

The other alternative is you're dual-homed, shutdown the externally facing interface, then apply the updated acls.

To answer your question, yes, manually pasting will leave your router vulnerable for that short period of time.

Hi,

I would appreciate some comments with regard to the extensive use of
cisco routers acls
To protect numerous networks.

My concern is that when someone amends an access-list one generally
enters, no access-list 177 and
Then pastes in the new access list. Does this mean that for a period of
time there is no protection on the
Network that the acls applies?

Best Regards
