Implementing and Configuring Cisco Identity Services Engine (SISE) — Question 197

An engineer is configuring a new Cisco ISE node. The Device Admin service must run on this node to handle authentication requests for network device access via TACACS+. Which persona must be enabled on this node to perform this function?

Answer options

• A. pxGrid
• B. Administration
• C. Policy Service
• D. Monitoring

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as the Policy Service persona is responsible for handling authentication requests, including those for TACACS+. The other personas, such as Administration, Monitoring, and pxGrid, do not perform the specific function of managing device access authentication, making them incorrect choices for this scenario.
