ASA 5545 ACL Question

SAM R. — Wed, 13 Mar 2019 01:10:10 GMT

Do the ASA 5545 Firewall ACLs affected locally generated traffic? Lets I use one of the interfaces of the ASA 5545 (not the managemet interface) to report syslog information or snmp information. If i created a ACL to block snmp/syslog traffic from the ip address of the firewall to the destination, will this actually get blocked? I know in routers that an ACL does not affect locally generated traffic, however, I am having trouble finding documentation to support the same thing in the ASA 5545. Does anyone have any insight on that?

Same here, The ASA-ACLs don't

Same here, The ASA-ACLs don't filter ASA-originated traffic.

Thanks, thats what I thought,

Thanks, thats what I thought, but I wasn't able to find that in any documentation.

I also just tried to find it

I also just tried to find it without any success. It's documented in the official ASA-trainings, but I'm pretty sure that I've also seen it documented in the configuration-guide ...

Well thanks for the quick
