I'm not surprised that the flows are created by different 'entities' inside
the 6500. Another evidence is the fact that mls  record are created with a
source port different than the software created records.
I just found it unexpected that this 'entity' was considered external by the
point of view of the ACL. Once you know it, I can punch an hole in the ACL,
but wanted to be sure this is expected and not actually a bug of some sort
(in the software or in the documentation! ;)

Thanks!
