ISE integration with Prime Infrastructure,

[minkumar]

Hi Team,

  I would like to know what are the advantages and Disadvantages of the ISE integration with Prime Infrastructre.Also  how the LAN, wifi, and identity management part (guest access etc) will work together.

Cheers!!!

Prime Infrastructure manages the wired and the wireless clients in the network. When Cisco ISE is used as a RADIUS server to authenticate clients, Prime Infrastructure collects additional information about these clients from Cisco ISE and provides all client relevant information to Prime Infrastructure to be visible in a single console.

When posture profiling is enforced in the network, Prime Infrastructure talks to Cisco ISE to get the posture data for the clients and displays it along with other client attributes. When Cisco ISE is used to profile the clients or an endpoint in the network, Prime Infrastructure collects the profiled data to determine what type of client it is, whether it is an iPhone, iPad, an Android device, or any other device.

Cisco ISE is assisting Prime Infrastructure to monitor and troubleshoot client information, and displays all the relevant information for a client in a single console.

Thanks Mohan,

  Can we integrate ISE with prime for  ISE Management or can we Manage ISE through Cisco Prime.

You cannot manage ISE through prime the same way you would manage a controller. Perhaps that will be something in the future though. 

Thank you for rating helpful posts!

we can integrate ISE with Prime but ISE can not be managed by prime. Prime gathers client data from ISE

Please find the list of supported devices by PI in attachment.

Hello - Can some one please provide links to documentation on ISE integration with Prime infrastructure 3.X for managing the wireless / wired clients. I am not looking for user authentication use case but managing the network infrastructure leveraging ISE Thanks!

I wonder if you were successful in your findings.

Me not.

It shows status unreachable.

Hello Team,
Based on the information provided, it has been observed that Prime Infrastructure can be managed by ISE as a controller. Therefore, we will be integrating DNAC with ISE using PXGRID. My question is, can Prime Infrastructure also be integrated through PXGRID or is there another method for managing Prime Infrastructure from ISE?

Prime Infrastructure could not be managed by ISE at all as far as I know.

ISE could provide AAA for PI (this is obvious).

ISE could be connected to Prime Infrastructure.
