where to apply access-list

leepeiwai

I have created the access 128 to allow a host (10.20.1.2) to access a web server (10.10.1.24).

No other hosts from the LAN (10.20.0.0) should be able to access the same web server.
However, all other traffic should be allowed since there are serveral resources (FTP, email etc) on this web server.

access-list 128 permit tcp host 10.20.1.2 host 10.10.1.24 eq www
access-list 128 deny tcp any host 10.10.1.24 eq www
access-list 128 permit ip any any

The web server is attached to FA0/1 side of the router.
Hosts in 10.20.0.0 is attached to FA0/0 side of the router.

Should I apply access list 128 on
Fa0/1 outbound OR Fa0/0 inbound ?

Thanks

Rule of thumb is always apply acls closest to source if possible so as Ganesh says apply it inbound on the host interface ie. fa0/0.
