Course Outline
Pre-Requisites
The learner is expected to have the following skills and knowledge before attending this course:
CCNA Security or equivalent level of experience with Cisco devices
Foundation-level wireless knowledge and skills
Familiarity with Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Active Directory
Familiarity with 802.1X
Familiarity with Cisco ASA
Lessons
This course includes Cisco Training ExclusivesEXCLUSIVE TO GLOBAL KNOWLEDGE - Accelerate your Cisco learning experience with complimentary access to the IT Skills Video On-Demand Library, Introduction to Cybersecurity digital learning course, course recordings, IT Resource Library, and digital courseware.
Â
In this course, you will learn about the Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) - a next-generation identity and access control policy platform that provides a single policy plane across the entire organization combining multiple services including authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) using 802.1x, MAB, web authentication, posture, profiling, device on-boarding, guest services, and VPN access into a single context-aware identity-based platform. The training provides learners with the knowledge and skills to enforce security compliance for wired and wireless endpoints and enhance infrastructure security using the Cisco ISE.
Â
This course is an intensive hands-on experience. With enhanced hands-on labs, you will cover all facets of Cisco ISE version 2.4. You will learn how to configure fundamental elements of ISE and how to secure identity-based networks using 802.1X for both wired and wireless clients, using Windows 10 and Apple iPad endpoints. You will integrate the Cisco Virtual Wireless LAN Controller (vWLC) with advanced ISE features. You will also learn to use the following advanced features of Cisco ISE: Active Directory Integration, Policy Sets, EasyConnect, EAP-FAST with EAP Chaining, BYOD, AnyConnect 4.x Posture Module for LAN and VPN compliance, TACACS+ Device Management, and TrustSec Security Group Access.
Â
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
- ISE deployment options including node types, personas, and licensing
- Install certificates into ISE using a Windows 2012 Certificate Authority (CA)
- Configure the Local and Active Directory Based Identity Store and use of Identity Source Sequences
- Configure AAA clients and network device groups
- Implement Policy Sets to streamline Authentication and Authorization in the organization
- Deploy EasyConnect as an alternative to 802.1X port-based authentication
- Implement 802.1X for wired and wireless networks using the AnyConnect 4.x NAM module, the latest dot1x commands on a catalyst switch, and version 8.4 of the vWLC
- Configure policies to allow MAC Authentication Bypass (MAB) of endpoints
- Use central web authentication (CWA) for redirection of legitimate domain users who need to register devices on the network using MAC addresses (device registration)
- Configure hotspot guest access, self-registration guest access, and sponsored guest access
- Configure profiler services in ISE and use newer probes available in IOS switch code 15.x as well as vWLC 8.4 code
- Work with profiling feeds, logical profiles, and building profiling conditions to match network endpoints
- Configure posture assessments using the new Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility 4.x posture module
- Configure Cisco ISE as a TACACS+ Server for Device Administration with Command Authorization
- Configure Cisco ISE to integrate with a 5500-X ASA and a Catalyst Switch for TrustSec and implement end-to-end Security Group Tagging (SGT) and Security Group Access Control (SGACL)
- Maintenance, best practices, and logging

I would never take another course that starts at 11AM and goes to 9PM again. The way the course was laid out really took away from the capturing of what was presented as it was 5-6 hours of watching a screen before getting to the actual labs. There has to be a better way to lay out this particular course. In my previous course, the lectures were broken up by labs which worked out fantastic and kept you engaged in the course. There were days when in order to actually complete the labs, would go over the 9PM day end time frame. Was able to get the primary labs done, but if you want to get all the content completed, you cannot complete it in the window of this course, you will need to come back on your own time.
