suggestion on authentication using the Cisco ISE

[network_geek1979]

Folks,
We are trying to look at authentication methods using Cisco ISE as there are plans to phase out the 802.1x authentication.

Anyone has any experience with Okta integration with the Cisco ISE? 
We are also aware about that posture assessment is one way, but this will need the AnyConnect client.

Any other authentication ways folks in the industry have seen?

Regards,
N!!

"plans to phase out the 802.1x authentication" Why?  This is pretty short sighted IMHO.  Not having 802.1X is step backwards in security posture.

Okta is for SAML/MFA, it is not a network access platform unless you are doing SAML based captive portals.
