Cisco 300-715 Practice Test 7

Question 60

A campus network engineer reports the following condition: Managed laptops present certificates during wireless 802.1X, but Cisco ISE rejects every certificate after a new enterprise CA was introduced. Which remediation most directly corrects the reported policy or access problem?

  1. Configure the supported allowed protocols for the intended transitional policy and assign the correct directory identity source while planning migration from password methods.
  2. Inspect the failing ISE node's AD connection status, DNS, required ports, and join health, then restore its supported directory integration.
  3. Configure the correct LDAP server endpoint, bind account, search base, and supported secure connection settings, then test group and user lookup.
  4. Import the approved CA trust chain for client authentication and align the EAP-TLS certificate authentication profile with the intended identity mapping.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The underlying cause is: EAP-TLS depends on ISE trusting the issuing CA and validating the presented client certificate chain and usage before granting authentication. The correct response is: Import the approved CA trust chain for client authentication and align the EAP-TLS certificate authentication profile with the intended identity mapping. Confirm by checking: A known managed certificate succeeds while a certificate from an untrusted issuer is still rejected with a clear authentication failure reason.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That intervention addresses peap mschapv2 directory credential validation, where PEAP inner credential authentication and EAP-TLS certificate authentication are different method flows, and an allowed protocol set must match the approved supplicants. Here, the relevant failure is instead: EAP-TLS depends on ISE trusting the issuing CA and validating the presented client certificate chain and usage before granting authentication.

B:

That intervention addresses active directory join for identity lookup, where ISE nodes require a functioning relationship to the intended Active Directory identity source, including reachability, name resolution, and a healthy domain join. In this question the necessary remedy is “Import the approved CA trust chain for client authentication and align the EAP-TLS certificate authentication profile with the intended identity mapping”, which this alternative does not provide.

C:

That intervention addresses ldap identity source secure bind, where An LDAP identity store requires a supported connection and bind configuration, appropriate directory credentials, and trust for encrypted transport where configured. The observed condition is managed laptops present certificates during wireless 802.1X, but Cisco ISE rejects every certificate after a new enterprise CA was introduced; this mechanism addresses another problem.

Question 61

A campus network engineer reports the following condition: A regulated laptop must use full-disk encryption, but it passes posture even when the protected volume is not encrypted because no matching requirement was enabled. What ongoing control should operations standardize for this scenario?

  1. Test posture requirement scope and remediation on each supported OS rather than assuming authentication implies encryption.
  2. Maintain an inventory of required remediation endpoints and test both isolation and repair after patch infrastructure changes.
  3. Separate authenticated, posture-unknown, compliant, and noncompliant states in authorization tests for every endpoint cohort.
  4. Inventory agent versions and required modules and confirm provisioning paths after endpoint software rollout changes.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

This safeguard directly addresses disk encryption compliance posture verification: Test posture requirement scope and remediation on each supported OS rather than assuming authentication implies encryption. The risk being prevented is: Endpoint compliance checks evaluate configured posture requirements; a missing or optional disk encryption requirement cannot enforce a mandatory protection control. A safeguard aimed at another fault would not control this issue.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Posture remediation requires explicitly permitted destinations and protocols while still preventing access to protected production resources. “Maintain an inventory of required remediation endpoints and test both isolation and repair after patch infrastructure changes” would remedy that alternative situation, but it would not correct the present issue: endpoint compliance checks evaluate configured posture requirements; a missing or optional disk encryption requirement cannot enforce a mandatory protection control.

C:

“Separate authenticated, posture-unknown, compliant, and noncompliant states in authorization tests for every endpoint cohort” is the supported response when successful identity authentication does not establish endpoint compliance; posture can be Unknown until the assessment completes and reports a final result. Here the decisive response is “Test posture requirement scope and remediation on each supported OS rather than assuming authentication implies encryption”, so that different intervention does not meet the stated requirement.

D:

Posture evaluation with the supported agent requires the correct Cisco Secure Client posture module and a matching ISE client provisioning and posture policy. “Inventory agent versions and required modules and confirm provisioning paths after endpoint software rollout changes” applies to that other condition. The reported evidence is a regulated laptop must use full-disk encryption, but it passes posture even when the protected volume is not encrypted because no matching requirement was enabled; this alternative would address the wrong dependency.

Question 62

Before accepting a secure access rollout, the team finds: A wireless guest joins an open onboarding SSID and gets a DHCP lease but never sees the intended Cisco ISE login portal; the controller has no usable redirect authorization result. Which maintenance practice most directly limits the same risk?

  1. Test authorization attributes, redirection capability, and portal reachability on the exact controller release before enabling the guest WLAN.
  2. Review sponsor-group privileges and maximum guest lifetimes as part of regular least-privilege access audits.
  3. Monitor portal certificate expiry and test browser trust after renewals rather than instructing guests to bypass TLS warnings.
  4. Verify approval emails, expiry, identity matching, and denial paths using a test account before opening the portal to visitors.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

This safeguard directly addresses centralized web authentication redirect policy: Test authorization attributes, redirection capability, and portal reachability on the exact controller release before enabling the guest WLAN. The risk being prevented is: Centralized Web Authentication needs the NAD to receive and enforce an ISE authorization result that includes a supported portal redirection mechanism. A safeguard aimed at another fault would not control this issue.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Successful Sponsor Portal sign-in does not imply the account has privileges to create the requested guest type or use the intended portal scope. “Review sponsor-group privileges and maximum guest lifetimes as part of regular least-privilege access audits” would remedy that alternative situation, but it would not correct the present issue: centralized Web Authentication needs the NAD to receive and enforce an ISE authorization result that includes a supported portal redirection mechanism.

C:

“Monitor portal certificate expiry and test browser trust after renewals rather than instructing guests to bypass TLS warnings” is the supported response when browsers validate the portal server certificate trust chain and subject alternative names independently of the RADIUS authentication decision. Here the decisive response is “Test authorization attributes, redirection capability, and portal reachability on the exact controller release before enabling the guest WLAN”, so that different intervention does not meet the stated requirement.

D:

Self-registration account creation and sponsor approval are distinct steps; a portal configured for immediate access bypasses the facility's approval requirement. “Verify approval emails, expiry, identity matching, and denial paths using a test account before opening the portal to visitors” applies to that other condition. The reported evidence is a wireless guest joins an open onboarding SSID and gets a DHCP lease but never sees the intended Cisco ISE login portal; the controller has no usable redirect authorization result; this alternative would address the wrong dependency.

Question 63

During an 802.1X, portal, or device administration test, engineers notice: A newly connected visitor gets the correct captive-portal URL but cannot load it because the preauthentication ACL blocks DNS and HTTPS connections to required services. Which Cisco ISE design or authorization principle accounts for this result?

  1. Self-registration account creation and sponsor approval are distinct steps; a portal configured for immediate access bypasses the facility's approval requirement.
  2. Successful Sponsor Portal sign-in does not imply the account has privileges to create the requested guest type or use the intended portal scope.
  3. The redirect ACL must permit the specific network prerequisites for the portal while restricting ordinary data-plane access until a user is authenticated.
  4. Browsers validate the portal server certificate trust chain and subject alternative names independently of the RADIUS authentication decision.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The underlying principle is: The redirect ACL must permit the specific network prerequisites for the portal while restricting ordinary data-plane access until a user is authenticated. Address this by: Allow only the needed DNS, DHCP, portal, and support service destinations in the redirect or preauthentication access path. The confirming operational observation is: A test visitor resolves the portal FQDN and loads its page but remains unable to reach protected corporate applications before authorization.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Self-registration account creation and sponsor approval are distinct steps; a portal configured for immediate access bypasses the facility's approval requirement. “Configure the guest portal to require the intended sponsor approval process and select the supported sponsor identity and notification workflow” would remedy that alternative situation, but it would not correct the present issue: the redirect ACL must permit the specific network prerequisites for the portal while restricting ordinary data-plane access until a user is authenticated.

B:

“Assign the receptionist an approved sponsor group with the specific guest account creation permissions and time limits needed for the lobby workflow” is the supported response when successful Sponsor Portal sign-in does not imply the account has privileges to create the requested guest type or use the intended portal scope. Here the decisive response is “Allow only the needed DNS, DHCP, portal, and support service destinations in the redirect or preauthentication access path”, so that different intervention does not meet the stated requirement.

D:

Browsers validate the portal server certificate trust chain and subject alternative names independently of the RADIUS authentication decision. “Bind a trusted portal certificate with an appropriate SAN and ensure guest clients can validate its issuing CA through the chosen DNS name” applies to that other condition. The reported evidence is a newly connected visitor gets the correct captive-portal URL but cannot load it because the preauthentication ACL blocks DNS and HTTPS connections to required services; this alternative would address the wrong dependency.

Question 64

A campus network engineer reports the following condition: A new Cisco ISE deployment accepts RADIUS endpoint authentications but refuses to activate the planned TACACS+ network device administration work center. Which governance or monitoring safeguard is most relevant here?

  1. Coordinate secret rotations between network-device templates and ISE records with immediate test access and rollback plans.
  2. Test role and network device combinations as a matrix whenever new groups or NADs are introduced.
  3. Keep a positive and negative command test set and inspect command authorization outcomes after changes to roles or software syntax.
  4. Validate device administration entitlement and service status during sizing and license renewal planning.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

This safeguard directly addresses tacacs device administration license entitlement: Validate device administration entitlement and service status during sizing and license renewal planning. The risk being prevented is: ISE TACACS+ device administration requires the relevant enabled licensing entitlement and service activation, beyond ordinary RADIUS NAC capabilities. A safeguard aimed at another fault would not control this issue.

Incorrect Answers

A:

TACACS+ requests must come from a recognized NAD with compatible shared secret, source identity and device administration service configuration. “Coordinate secret rotations between network-device templates and ISE records with immediate test access and rollback plans” would remedy that alternative situation, but it would not correct the present issue: ISE TACACS+ device administration requires the relevant enabled licensing entitlement and service activation, beyond ordinary RADIUS NAC capabilities.

B:

“Test role and network device combinations as a matrix whenever new groups or NADs are introduced” is the supported response when device administration policy-set selection and authorization conditions must scope identities and network device groups so unrelated equipment does not inherit privileges. Here the decisive response is “Validate device administration entitlement and service status during sizing and license renewal planning”, so that different intervention does not meet the stated requirement.

C:

Successful TACACS+ authentication does not prove command authorization: shell profile, command set, identity group, and matched device policy may independently restrict commands. “Keep a positive and negative command test set and inspect command authorization outcomes after changes to roles or software syntax” applies to that other condition. The reported evidence is a new Cisco ISE deployment accepts RADIUS endpoint authentications but refuses to activate the planned TACACS+ network device administration work center; this alternative would address the wrong dependency.

Question 65

A campus network engineer reports the following condition: A managed personal device certificate is revoked following offboarding, but test connections still pass because certificate revocation checking is not functioning correctly. Which supported configuration change best meets the stated requirement?

  1. Use the supported My Devices or administrative lost-device workflow and revoke the certificate or registration as required by policy.
  2. Configure compatible platform-specific BYOD provisioning and certificate flows and provide distinct instructions for each supported OS.
  3. Review Cisco's version-specific Android BYOD guidance and avoid unsupported MAC-bound authorization conditions for randomized-address clients.
  4. Repair the approved CRL or OCSP reachability and configure the EAP-TLS certificate validation policy to honor the intended revocation controls.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The underlying cause is: Client certificate validity includes its revocation status when policy requires that check; a valid signature and unexpired date alone do not establish current authorization. The correct response is: Repair the approved CRL or OCSP reachability and configure the EAP-TLS certificate validation policy to honor the intended revocation controls. Confirm by checking: A revoked test certificate is rejected while a comparable valid certificate from the same trusted CA still authenticates.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That intervention addresses my devices lost personal device handling, where A registered BYOD device can retain network credentials until its registration status and certificates are revoked or invalidated through the intended lifecycle process. Here, the relevant failure is instead: Client certificate validity includes its revocation status when policy requires that check; a valid signature and unexpired date alone do not establish current authorization.

B:

That intervention addresses cross platform byod onboarding support, where The native supplicant configuration mechanism varies by operating system, so one platform's provisioning wizard or user interaction is not universal. In this question the necessary remedy is “Repair the approved CRL or OCSP reachability and configure the EAP-TLS certificate validation policy to honor the intended revocation controls”, which this alternative does not provide.

C:

That intervention addresses android randomized mac byod compatibility, where Android MAC randomization can change the address seen by ISE and break BYOD rules that bind registration to a fixed MAC or MAC-in-certificate value. The observed condition is a managed personal device certificate is revoked following offboarding, but test connections still pass because certificate revocation checking is not functioning correctly; this mechanism addresses another problem.

Question 66

An enterprise identity operations team must resolve this situation: An IT group copies one Windows BYOD enrollment instruction to iOS and Android users, who cannot execute the same installer or profile steps successfully. Which governance or monitoring safeguard is most relevant here?

  1. Monitor revocation responder availability and document controlled outage behavior instead of disabling checks to hide errors.
  2. Maintain a per-platform test matrix and retest client onboarding after mobile operating system upgrades.
  3. Test certificate profile and SAN mapping after template or naming changes before issuing replacement certificates to the fleet.
  4. Train users to report loss promptly and test device-specific revocation independently of account password changes.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

This safeguard directly addresses cross platform byod onboarding support: Maintain a per-platform test matrix and retest client onboarding after mobile operating system upgrades. The risk being prevented is: The native supplicant configuration mechanism varies by operating system, so one platform's provisioning wizard or user interaction is not universal. A safeguard aimed at another fault would not control this issue.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Client certificate validity includes its revocation status when policy requires that check; a valid signature and unexpired date alone do not establish current authorization. “Monitor revocation responder availability and document controlled outage behavior instead of disabling checks to hide errors” would remedy that alternative situation, but it would not correct the present issue: the native supplicant configuration mechanism varies by operating system, so one platform's provisioning wizard or user interaction is not universal.

C:

“Test certificate profile and SAN mapping after template or naming changes before issuing replacement certificates to the fleet” is the supported response when BYOD certificate contents and the certificate authentication profile must agree on the field used to map the device credential to an authorized identity. Here the decisive response is “Maintain a per-platform test matrix and retest client onboarding after mobile operating system upgrades”, so that different intervention does not meet the stated requirement.

D:

A registered BYOD device can retain network credentials until its registration status and certificates are revoked or invalidated through the intended lifecycle process. “Train users to report loss promptly and test device-specific revocation independently of account password changes” applies to that other condition. The reported evidence is an IT group copies one Windows BYOD enrollment instruction to iOS and Android users, who cannot execute the same installer or profile steps successfully; this alternative would address the wrong dependency.

Question 67

A campus network engineer reports the following condition: A freshly installed Cisco ISE node cannot join the intended distributed deployment reliably and certificate-based authentications show inconsistent errors after engineers skipped DNS and NTP validation. Which supported configuration change best meets the stated requirement?

  1. Prepare a supported deployment bootstrap input with approved hostname, IP settings, DNS, NTP, and initial provisioning data, then validate each node after startup.
  2. Update the RADIUS server references and install a trusted EAP server certificate with the appropriate identity on the replacement PSN.
  3. Design a supported distributed deployment using redundant Administration and Monitoring nodes and sufficient Policy Service Nodes for the expected locations.
  4. Configure resolvable DNS hostnames and correct forward and reverse records plus approved NTP sources before attempting node registration again.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The underlying cause is: Stable name resolution and synchronized time are essential to deployment communication, certificate validation, and the accurate correlation of authentication events. The correct response is: Configure resolvable DNS hostnames and correct forward and reverse records plus approved NTP sources before attempting node registration again. Confirm by checking: The node resolves deployment peers, clocks agree within acceptable tolerance, and registration and representative authentication tests complete successfully.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That intervention addresses zero touch ise installation bootstrap, where Supported zero-touch provisioning can automate the initial ISE installation configuration; it does not replace subsequent policy administration or security validation. Here, the relevant failure is instead: Stable name resolution and synchronized time are essential to deployment communication, certificate validation, and the accurate correlation of authentication events.

B:

That intervention addresses ise policy node certificate identity after migration, where The RADIUS server identity and certificate trust path must match what the supplicant expects; the old node address and certificate are not valid replacements. In this question the necessary remedy is “Configure resolvable DNS hostnames and correct forward and reverse records plus approved NTP sources before attempting node registration again”, which this alternative does not provide.

C:

That intervention addresses distributed ise deployment versus standalone mode, where A standalone ISE node combines multiple personas and creates a shared failure point, whereas a distributed deployment can allocate personas and redundancy independently. The observed condition is a freshly installed Cisco ISE node cannot join the intended distributed deployment reliably and certificate-based authentications show inconsistent errors after engineers skipped DNS and NTP validation; this mechanism addresses another problem.

Question 68

A network access incident review reveals: Managed Windows clients receive initial network access but no posture assessment because only a VPN component of Cisco Secure Client was deployed. Which acceptance test confirms the intended ISE operation?

  1. A managed Windows device receives the Windows package and a supported macOS device receives the intended compatible configuration.
  2. A newly connected test laptop has restricted access while Unknown and changes to production authorization only after passing the defined requirements.
  3. A compliant test laptop passes while a test laptop with missing or disabled required protection becomes noncompliant and receives remediation access.
  4. A test endpoint reports actual checks and a compliance state in ISE rather than remaining unassessed after successful identity authentication.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

This directly verifies cisco secure client posture module deployment: A test endpoint reports actual checks and a compliance state in ISE rather than remaining unassessed after successful identity authentication. The linked remediation is: Deploy the appropriate Secure Client posture module and compliance components through approved client provisioning policies. A result from an unrelated network access function does not prove this requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A managed Windows device receives the Windows package and a supported macOS device receives the intended compatible configuration. This is a different failure mechanism from the current case, which concerns a test endpoint reports actual checks and a compliance state in ISE rather than remaining unassessed after successful identity authentication.

B:

This option instead describes a newly connected test laptop has restricted access while Unknown and changes to production authorization only after passing the defined requirements. Testing that independent mechanism would not show whether the reported fault has been resolved.

C:

A compliant test laptop passes while a test laptop with missing or disabled required protection becomes noncompliant and receives remediation access. The stem describes managed Windows clients receive initial network access but no posture assessment because only a VPN component of Cisco Secure Client was deployed, so this explanation does not account for the observations.

Question 69

Before accepting a secure access rollout, the team finds: An access port serves a corporate IP phone with a workstation behind it, but a single-host authorization configuration causes the second endpoint to be rejected. Which preventive check best reduces the chance of recurrence?

  1. Track unknown endpoints in Live Logs and review MAB permissions and device identity group membership regularly.
  2. Test phone plus PC boot and reauthentication order before applying host-mode changes to shared access ports.
  3. Audit approved device MAC addresses and restrict their authorized network paths because MAC identifiers can be spoofed.
  4. Use positive and negative request fixtures to detect shadowed or overbroad policy conditions after every major edit.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

This safeguard directly addresses switch host mode with ip phone and pc: Test phone plus PC boot and reauthentication order before applying host-mode changes to shared access ports. The risk being prevented is: Wired host modes determine how multiple MAC or voice and data sessions are authenticated on one switchport and must match the connected endpoint topology. A safeguard aimed at another fault would not control this issue.

Incorrect Answers

A:

MAC addresses are not cryptographic identities, and a permissive default MAB result defeats endpoint inventory controls and enables trivial impersonation. “Track unknown endpoints in Live Logs and review MAB permissions and device identity group membership regularly” would remedy that alternative situation, but it would not correct the present issue: wired host modes determine how multiple MAC or voice and data sessions are authenticated on one switchport and must match the connected endpoint topology.

C:

“Audit approved device MAC addresses and restrict their authorized network paths because MAC identifiers can be spoofed” is the supported response when MAC Authentication Bypass requires corresponding network device fallback configuration and a matching ISE policy; populating the MAC inventory alone is insufficient. Here the decisive response is “Test phone plus PC boot and reauthentication order before applying host-mode changes to shared access ports”, so that different intervention does not meet the stated requirement.

D:

Policy evaluation uses rule order and the first matching conditions at the applicable stage, so a broad earlier rule can shadow a later specific result. “Use positive and negative request fixtures to detect shadowed or overbroad policy conditions after every major edit” applies to that other condition. The reported evidence is an access port serves a corporate IP phone with a workstation behind it, but a single-host authorization configuration causes the second endpoint to be rejected; this alternative would address the wrong dependency.

Question 70

During an 802.1X, portal, or device administration test, engineers notice: An employee registers a personal tablet and receives a certificate, yet ISE authorizes every trusted certificate including unrelated company-issued machine credentials for BYOD access. Which Cisco ISE action most directly resolves the observed problem?

  1. Match the approved BYOD registration state and certificate identity in an authorization rule instead of granting the BYOD result to all trusted issuers.
  2. Provide the compatible Network Setup Assistant or provisioning wizard and an approved profile that configures the secure network and certificate.
  3. Configure the supported Cisco ISE internal CA or approved external issuance integration, trust chain, and certificate provisioning prerequisites.
  4. Provide the approved onboarding portal and supplicant configuration for the secure SSID and guide the device through the necessary network transition.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The underlying cause is: Certificate chain trust establishes authenticity but does not substitute for the registered BYOD attributes and identity conditions required by the access policy. The correct response is: Match the approved BYOD registration state and certificate identity in an authorization rule instead of granting the BYOD result to all trusted issuers. Confirm by checking: An enrolled personal tablet gets the intended limited BYOD access while a different valid certificate without registration does not match the rule.

Incorrect Answers

B:

That intervention addresses byod native supplicant provisioning wizard, where The supported native supplicant provisioning workflow installs the approved wireless settings and device credential; portal registration alone does not configure EAP-TLS. Here, the relevant failure is instead: Certificate chain trust establishes authenticity but does not substitute for the registered BYOD attributes and identity conditions required by the access policy.

C:

That intervention addresses ise internal ca certificate signing for byod, where Certificate-based BYOD requires an appropriate issuing CA and working certificate provisioning chain; a portal alone cannot create trusted device credentials. In this question the necessary remedy is “Match the approved BYOD registration state and certificate identity in an authorization rule instead of granting the BYOD result to all trusted issuers”, which this alternative does not provide.

D:

That intervention addresses dual ssid byod onboarding path, where Dual-SSID BYOD designs require the enrollment workflow or user instructions to move the configured supplicant to the secure certificate-authenticated WLAN. The observed condition is an employee registers a personal tablet and receives a certificate, yet ISE authorizes every trusted certificate including unrelated company-issued machine credentials for BYOD access; this mechanism addresses another problem.
