Remarks that do not have a corresponding rule are incremented as a rule. These two mechanisms allow remarks to retain their 
original position in the list. The following example shows remark 10 corresponding to rule 10 and as such, they have the same 
number before and after the command is entered. Remark 4 is incremented as a rule, and all rules have retained their original 
positions.

Route Maps
Although route maps are similar to ACLs and prefix lists in that they consist of a series of commands that contain a matching 
criterion and an action, route maps can modify parameters in matching packets.
Implementation Information
ACLs and prefix lists can only drop or forward the packet or traffic. Route maps process routes for route redistribution. For 
example, a route map can be called to filter only specific routes and to add a metric.
Route maps also have an “implicit deny.” Unlike ACLs and prefix lists; however, where the packet or traffic is dropped, in route 
maps, if a route does not match any of the route map conditions, the route is not redistributed.
