1300 ??? that is huge...but do you see any performance issue's at the moment thats the question..if you don't see it, i suppose its ok..i idea is to look at a different network setup if you need to add more..

CCNA, CCNP..partly

why do you have a 1300 line ACL?

sounds like you need to implement a firewall...

Hi Thanks for your reply everyone. Yes you are right i need a firewall to filter outgoing traffic.

Initially i plan to filter certain range of IP traffic going out using my core switch cisco 3550 and only allow certain range of ip address access internet that why i end up having a huge number of access list.

Now i'm using my firewall to filter my traffic.

Anyway Thanks again for your reply.
