Got it.

My response was based on this subsequent posting by Krishnan.

"I was just looking from a TCP level. Where router just recieve the "SYN"

Just trying to troubleshoot from TCP level , trying understand any error code"

Anyway, he should be able to use one of two suggestions depending on what he needs.

Sundar,

Just one precision. This ACL applied outbount does not prevent the router to send the SYN message because traffic sourced by the router is not filtered by the outbound ACL.

One could always apply the same ACL inbound on the facing router, which would cause the router to reject the SYN message but bear in mind that the SYN would still be issued.

Hope this helps,
