IP ACL and IP Policy Map on same interface?

[Simon Jackson]

So we currently have ACLs inbound on our VLAN interfaces to limit which other VLANs they can see, over what ports.

We are now also looking to shunt our web traffic to some new smoothwall web filters, instead of our existing Firewall filters which aren't upto it, via Policy Based Routing.

Can an IP ACL and an IP Policy Map exist on the same interface in the same direction at the same time, and is it advised?

If so, which is actioned first? The Access-list or the Policy Map? Does it matter?

Any advice on writing the Policy Based Routes?

Hi

it doesn't matter both are exclusive features to each other as long as the acl and the policy-map are not contradicting each other in what they do or then there may be issues alright but if there doing separate things then your ok.
