Implementing and Configuring Cisco Identity Services Engine (SISE) — Question 23

An engineer is working with a distributed deployment of Cisco ISE and needs to configure various network probes to collect a set of attributes from the endpoints on the network.
Which node should be used to accomplish this task?

Answer options

• A. policy service
• B. monitoring
• C. primary policy administrator
• D. pxGrid

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, the policy service, as it is responsible for handling authentication and authorization, and can be configured for network probes. The monitoring node (B) focuses on reports and logs but does not manage probes, while the primary policy administrator (C) is for administration tasks and pxGrid (D) is for sharing contextual information but not directly for probe configuration.
