ISE required good compute system to process.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> Sun, 08 Oct 2023 17:07:31 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-access-control/mix-ise-form-factor/m-p/4936296#M584475 balaji.bandi 2023-10-08T17:07:31Z Re: Mix ISE Form Factor https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-access-control/mix-ise-form-factor/m-p/4936305#M584476 <P>The ISE doesn't really form a cluster. It's a combination of different nodes that work together. These nodes can not only mix physical and virtual appliances but also different sizes like small/medium/large as you need them.</P> Sun, 08 Oct 2023 16:39:21 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-access-control/mix-ise-form-factor/m-p/4936305#M584476 Karsten Iwen 2023-10-08T16:39:21Z Re: Mix ISE Form Factor https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-access-control/mix-ise-form-factor/m-p/4936327#M584477 <P>your question is already answered, also make sure you check the hardware <A href="https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/ise/3-3/compatibility_doc/b_ise_sdt_33.html#c_hardware_req_33" target="_self">compatibility </A>list for the software version you are installing. for e.g. newer version like 3.3 wont support old Gen appliances like 3500</P> Sun, 08 Oct 2023 18:36:42 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-access-control/mix-ise-form-factor/m-p/4936327#M584477 Ambuj M 2023-10-08T18:36:42Z
