Hi,

We are planning an ISE installation in our organization and wanted to check if we can have a three node ISE setup running various personas as listed.

Location - DC

Node 1 - Admin Primary/Monitoring Primary

Node 2 - PSN

Location - DR

Node 3 - Admin Secondary/Monitoring Secondary/PSN

Regards

When you have a combined PAN, PSN and MNT node, it does not support a separate PSN. Look at the reference here:

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/ise/2-1/install_guide/b_ise_InstallationGuide21/b_ise_InstallationGuide21_chapter_00.pdf

The deployment you mentioned is somewhere between Small and Medium deployment. I would recommend adding another PSN (you can have upto 5), so that you have separate PSN and remaining functionality. If price is a criterion, you can have 2 nodes doing all personas -  which gives you the same supported user count as Medium deployment.
