What is the command to remove a specific statement from a named ACL?

1. (config)#ip access-list standard ACL NAME no ACL STATEMENT

2. (config)#ip access-list extended ACL NAME remove ACL STATEMENT

3. (config)#no ACL STATEMENT from ACL NAME

4. (config)#ip access-list standard/extended ACL NAME no ACL STATEMENT

The correct answer is: (config)#ip access-list standard/extended ACL NAME no ACL STATEMENT

The command to remove a specific statement from a named Access Control List (ACL) is correctly represented by the provided answer. When managing named ACLs (both standard and extended), you first enter the configuration mode for that specific ACL using the command "ip access-list standard ACL_NAME" or "ip access-list extended ACL_NAME," depending on the type of ACL you are working with. Once inside the ACL configuration context, using "no ACL_STATEMENT" effectively removes the specified ACE (Access Control Entry) from the ACL. This syntax allows for precise deletion without disrupting the entire ACL's configuration, maintaining other rules that may still be in effect. The context surrounding other options sheds light on their inadequacies, like referencing incorrect command structures or using terminology that doesn't align with the standard command syntax utilized in Cisco IOS. This emphasis on correct syntax and command structure is key in managing ACLs effectively within a network.
