Question 10

A branch appliance hosts only monitoring services although the design expects it to authenticate wireless clients. The observed failure is: A healthy PAN login does not prove a reachable PSN is handling network access decisions. How should the administrator correct and verify this failure?

  1. The supported recovery is to disable every distributed persona to reduce configuration complexity.
  2. The supported recovery is to treat the Monitoring persona alone as a full authentication server.
  3. The supported recovery is to enable an appropriate PSN role and test end-to-end RADIUS from the affected switch.
  4. The supported recovery is to configure switches to send every RADIUS packet to an administration-only node.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

This restores the intended operational behavior for Policy Administration Node and Policy Service Node role separation. For the specific situation, a branch appliance hosts only monitoring services although the design expects it to authenticate wireless clients.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Disable every distributed persona to reduce configuration complexity. This action does not repair the identified failure. A healthy PAN login does not prove a reachable PSN is handling network access decisions. Instead, enable an appropriate PSN role and test end-to-end RADIUS from the affected switch. For the specific situation, a branch appliance hosts only monitoring services although the design expects it to authenticate wireless clients.

B:

Treat the Monitoring persona alone as a full authentication server. This action does not repair the identified failure. A healthy PAN login does not prove a reachable PSN is handling network access decisions. Instead, enable an appropriate PSN role and test end-to-end RADIUS from the affected switch. For the specific situation, a branch appliance hosts only monitoring services although the design expects it to authenticate wireless clients.

D:

Configure switches to send every RADIUS packet to an administration-only node. This action does not repair the identified failure. A healthy PAN login does not prove a reachable PSN is handling network access decisions. Instead, enable an appropriate PSN role and test end-to-end RADIUS from the affected switch. For the specific situation, a branch appliance hosts only monitoring services although the design expects it to authenticate wireless clients.

Question 11

A compliance officer needs centralized authentication reporting but only a PSN is deployed and no historical reports appear. Which configuration decision most directly satisfies the requirement?

  1. Point all access switches at a log-only monitoring node.
  2. Assume a successful report export proves every RADIUS request was accepted.
  3. Deploy and verify Monitoring and Troubleshooting services for log collection and reporting while keeping live AAA on PSNs.
  4. Disable PSN logging to make reporting data easier to reconcile.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Monitoring persona collects operational events and reports rather than replacing the policy service decision point. For the specific situation, a compliance officer needs centralized authentication reporting but only a PSN is deployed and no historical reports appear.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This does not implement the required control for Monitoring and Troubleshooting persona report collection. Use the supported approach: deploy and verify Monitoring and Troubleshooting services for log collection and reporting while keeping live AAA on PSNs.

B:

Assume a successful report export proves every RADIUS request was accepted. This alternative overlooks a required prerequisite or targets the wrong function. Monitoring persona collects operational events and reports rather than replacing the policy service decision point. The relevant evidence is mnT persona assignments, syslog delivery, reporting database events and PSN RADIUS logs. For the specific situation, a compliance officer needs centralized authentication reporting but only a PSN is deployed and no historical reports appear.

D:

Disable PSN logging to make reporting data easier to reconcile. This leaves the original requirement unresolved. Confusing logging with AAA processing leaves missing reports or an unavailable authentication endpoint. Instead the intended policy action is deploy and verify Monitoring and Troubleshooting services for log collection and reporting while keeping live AAA on PSNs. For the specific situation, a compliance officer needs centralized authentication reporting but only a PSN is deployed and no historical reports appear.

Question 12

A compliance officer needs centralized authentication reporting but only a PSN is deployed and no historical reports appear. What observations most directly test this network-access condition?

  1. MnT persona assignments, syslog delivery, reporting database events and PSN RADIUS logs.
  2. A successful ICMP echo that does not test the required identity-service workflow.
  3. A browser theme label without a current authorization trace.
  4. An old diagram with no RADIUS, TACACS+ or endpoint-session evidence.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Monitoring persona collects operational events and reports rather than replacing the policy service decision point. These observations directly establish the result of Monitoring and Troubleshooting persona report collection for the described endpoint or network device.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This observation cannot verify Monitoring and Troubleshooting persona report collection. Monitoring persona collects operational events and reports rather than replacing the policy service decision point.

C:

This observation cannot verify Monitoring and Troubleshooting persona report collection. For the specific situation, a compliance officer needs centralized authentication reporting but only a PSN is deployed and no historical reports appear.

D:

This observation cannot verify Monitoring and Troubleshooting persona report collection. Check mnT persona assignments, syslog delivery, reporting database events and PSN RADIUS logs.

Question 13

A compliance officer needs centralized authentication reporting but only a PSN is deployed and no historical reports appear. What principle of ISE authentication and authorization explains this case?

  1. Monitoring persona collects operational events and reports rather than replacing the policy service decision point.
  2. All Cisco ISE administration and policy personas perform exactly the same service.
  3. A captive portal page automatically changes network authorization on every active NAD session without signaling.
  4. A MAC address is a cryptographic proof of endpoint device ownership.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The supported implementation is to deploy and verify Monitoring and Troubleshooting services for log collection and reporting while keeping live AAA on PSNs. For the specific situation, a compliance officer needs centralized authentication reporting but only a PSN is deployed and no historical reports appear.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This generalization is not valid for Monitoring and Troubleshooting persona report collection. Instead monitoring persona collects operational events and reports rather than replacing the policy service decision point.

C:

This generalization is not valid for Monitoring and Troubleshooting persona report collection. For the specific situation, a compliance officer needs centralized authentication reporting but only a PSN is deployed and no historical reports appear.

D:

This generalization is not valid for Monitoring and Troubleshooting persona report collection. Verify the actual state using mnT persona assignments, syslog delivery, reporting database events and PSN RADIUS logs.

Question 14

A compliance officer needs centralized authentication reporting but only a PSN is deployed and no historical reports appear. An operator proposes the following incorrect shortcut: Point all access switches at a log-only monitoring node. Which negative consequence BEST explains the shortcut’s flaw?

  1. Accurate device accounting automatically created every earlier failed EAP exchange.
  2. Inspecting a correct endpoint certificate generated the original directory outage.
  3. A justified least-privilege ACL caused every unrelated network authentication fault.
  4. Confusing logging with AAA processing leaves missing reports or an unavailable authentication endpoint.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The shortcut is unsuitable because monitoring persona collects operational events and reports rather than replacing the policy service decision point. For the specific situation, a compliance officer needs centralized authentication reporting but only a PSN is deployed and no historical reports appear.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This unrelated assertion does not explain the Monitoring and Troubleshooting persona report collection problem. The relevant risk is that confusing logging with AAA processing leaves missing reports or an unavailable authentication endpoint.

B:

This unrelated assertion does not explain the Monitoring and Troubleshooting persona report collection problem. For the specific situation, a compliance officer needs centralized authentication reporting but only a PSN is deployed and no historical reports appear.

C:

This unrelated assertion does not explain the Monitoring and Troubleshooting persona report collection problem. Check mnT persona assignments, syslog delivery, reporting database events and PSN RADIUS logs.

Question 15

A compliance officer needs centralized authentication reporting but only a PSN is deployed and no historical reports appear. The observed failure is: Confusing logging with AAA processing leaves missing reports or an unavailable authentication endpoint. How should the administrator correct and verify this failure?

  1. Restore MnT collection routes and test both session reporting and PSN authentication separately.
  2. Assume a successful report export proves every RADIUS request was accepted.
  3. Disable PSN logging to make reporting data easier to reconcile.
  4. Point all access switches at a log-only monitoring node.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Monitoring persona collects operational events and reports rather than replacing the policy service decision point. This restores the intended operational behavior for Monitoring and Troubleshooting persona report collection.

Incorrect Answers
