ISE Machine Account in AD

Hi Everyone, 

I would like to know why ISE needs the ability to change own password in AD with the Machine account.

What is this functionality used for as this is flagged by a client?

The ISE/AD integration lists the requirements for the Machine account but does not specify why this functionality is required.

Below is the list of requirements from the guide for the ISE/AD Machine account:

  • Set attributes on the machine account (for example, Cisco machine account password, SPN, DNS Hostname)
  • Ability to change own password
  • Read the user/machine objects corresponding to users/machines
  • Query Active Directory to get information (for example, trusted domains, alternative UPN suffixes)
  • Ability to read token Groups attribute

Appreciate your inputs.

Thanks. 

A M Nassiri
