Extended Access Lists
In the standard IP access list example earlier, notice how you had to block all access from the Sales LAN to the finance department. What if you needed Sales to gain access to a certain server on the Finance LAN but not to other network services, for security reasons? With a standard IP access list, you can’t allow users to get to one network service and not another.
Said another way, when you need to make decisions based on both source and destination addresses, a standard access list won’t allow you to do that since it only makes decisions based on source address.
But an extended access list will hook you up. That’s because extended access lists allow you to specify source and destination address as well as the protocol and port number that identify the upper-layer protocol or application. By using extended access lists, you can effectively allow users access to a physical LAN and stop them from accessing specific hosts or even specific services on those hosts.
Here’s an example of an extended IP access list :
