Implementing and Configuring Cisco Identity Services Engine (SISE) — Question 198

An engineer has been tasked with using Cisco ISE to restrict network access at the switchport level using 802.1X authentication. Users who fail 802.1X authentication should e redirected via web redirection and have their access restricted via an ACL. What must be configured in Cisco ISE to accomplish this task?

Answer options

• A. an authorization profile
• B. an authorization rule
• C. an authentication policy
• D. an authentication profile

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, an authorization profile, which is essential for defining what happens to users based on their authentication results, including web redirection and access restrictions. Options B and C do not specifically define the actions for users who fail authentication, and option D relates to the configuration of the authentication process itself, not the post-authentication actions.
