ISE behind load balancer

I have a question regarding ISE profiling servers that are placed behind a load balancer:

If you have a ISE environment where both computers and users are being authenticated, and Machine Access Restriction (MAR) is enabled (so users can only authenticate on a previously authenticated machine), are the ISE servers aware of all succesfull computer authentications handled by the other ISE servers?

For example:

There are 2 ISE appliances (ISE01 and ISE02) behind a load balancer.

A user starts up his computer, and computer authentication is handled by ISE01 (and the authentication is successful). At the moment the user logs in on that computer, the load balancer chooses ISE02 to authenticate the user.

Will ISE02 be aware that the corresponding computer was already succesfully authenticated on ISE01, so that the user is able to log in? Or will it deny the user authentication because it thinks the computer is not (yet) authenticated and Machine Access Restrictions is enabled?

Kind regards,

Bert
