numbers in named ACL's do not show up in show running-config

[jasonatcco]

a C2651XM router running IOS 12.2 appears to have an odd bug that I can't find listed.

sh run

<snip>

remark DENY AND LOG THE REST

deny ip any any log

sh start

<snip>

remark DENY AND LOG THE REST

6000 deny ip any any log

Notice in this named ACL, the numbers (6000 in this case) don't show up on a show running-config. Is this an IOS bug or is something else wrong?

Hi,

That is not a bug. That is how named access-lists with sequence numbers are displayed in the running-configuration. The sequence numbers are there only to enforce sequencing of the ACL lines. If you do want to see the sequence numbers, enter in 'sh ip access-list '

I'm confused then, why do 29 out of my 65 routers show numbers in the named ACL's when doing a show startup and the others don't? Makes it hard to compare running and startup configs to see if anyone has missed a wr mem or something.
