    1. Pirate says:

      Thats right. Only the implicit deny will block all incoming traffic except the explicit allows (HTTP, HTTPS). So that is a solution on its own.
      Answer F will also work as a single solution.

    I believe that A is the only correct answer. When you specify “deny ip” you’re not allowed to specify a port, only source and destination IP addresses… at least on Cisco gear. So that should rule out F. And DNS uses both UDP and TCP so D is technically only partially correct. Also “deny icmp” would not apply to DNS thus ruling out E.

    You people have to read the ENTIRE question. The very last sentence says this: Which of the following rules would accomplish this task? (Select TWO).

    A and F will both accomplish the task of denying DNS access to Port 53. A will deny EVERYTHING except HTTP and HTTPS traffic, while F would continue to allow everything except DNS traffic, which is TCP53 (requests) and UDP53 (zone transfers).
