Cisco 300-715 Practice Test 8

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.

Question 71

An administrator reviewing a Cisco ISE deployment identifies: Personal laptops are redirected correctly to the enrollment portal but refuse to submit credentials because browsers cannot validate the portal TLS certificate. Which evidence most directly establishes that the fix works?

  1. A clean personal device loads the registration portal without certificate warnings and proceeds to the authorized enrollment prompt.
  2. The employee's tablet presents a new valid certificate and completes EAP-TLS without adding an unrelated long-lived exception for expired credentials.
  3. After the expected transition the same device authenticates by certificate and receives the approved post-registration VLAN or ACL.
  4. Three approved test devices stay registered while a fourth cannot gain trusted BYOD authorization without removing an earlier device.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

This directly verifies byod portal certificate browser trust: A clean personal device loads the registration portal without certificate warnings and proceeds to the authorized enrollment prompt. The linked remediation is: Install an appropriately trusted portal HTTPS certificate with the correct SAN and publish a reachable portal FQDN. A result from an unrelated network access function does not prove this requirement.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The employee's tablet presents a new valid certificate and completes EAP-TLS without adding an unrelated long-lived exception for expired credentials. This is a different failure mechanism from the current case, which concerns a clean personal device loads the registration portal without certificate warnings and proceeds to the authorized enrollment prompt.

C:

This option instead describes after the expected transition the same device authenticates by certificate and receives the approved post-registration VLAN or ACL. Testing that independent mechanism would not show whether the reported fault has been resolved.

D:

Three approved test devices stay registered while a fourth cannot gain trusted BYOD authorization without removing an earlier device. The stem describes personal laptops are redirected correctly to the enrollment portal but refuse to submit credentials because browsers cannot validate the portal TLS certificate, so this explanation does not account for the observations.

Question 72

During a controlled Cisco ISE access policy lab verification, engineers observe: A test client passes EAP-TLS certificate validation but still receives an access reject because the policy forbids devices without the required enterprise endpoint group. Which supported configuration change best meets the stated requirement?

  1. Synchronize the strong shared secret and correct RADIUS source interface configuration on the approved switch and matching ISE network-device entry.
  2. Configure the approved Cisco ISE compatible MFA integration and policy conditions, then test that the second-factor service participates in authorization.
  3. Keep the trusted certificate profile intact and correct the endpoint registration or authorization-group conditions required by the access rule.
  4. Use reliable network device or WLAN attributes to distinguish guest from employee access in top-level policy set selection.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The underlying cause is: Passing certificate chain and authentication checks does not itself guarantee that the requested network authorization conditions are satisfied. The correct response is: Keep the trusted certificate profile intact and correct the endpoint registration or authorization-group conditions required by the access rule. Confirm by checking: The approved device passes both EAP-TLS and authorization, while an unrelated validly signed client certificate does not gain corporate access.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That intervention addresses radius shared secret mismatch on wired switch, where RADIUS client message validation depends on compatible shared secrets and endpoint identity settings at both ISE and the network device. Here, the relevant failure is instead: Passing certificate chain and authentication checks does not itself guarantee that the requested network authorization conditions are satisfied.

B:

That intervention addresses multifactor identity store integration boundary, where A directory password check and an external MFA challenge are distinct authentication steps requiring an explicitly supported integrated authentication flow. In this question the necessary remedy is “Keep the trusted certificate profile intact and correct the endpoint registration or authorization-group conditions required by the access rule”, which this alternative does not provide.

D:

That intervention addresses policy set matching correct wireless network, where A broad policy set selection condition can group unrelated WLANs, causing later authentication and authorization rules to use the wrong service assumptions. The observed condition is a test client passes EAP-TLS certificate validation but still receives an access reject because the policy forbids devices without the required enterprise endpoint group; this mechanism addresses another problem.

Question 73

During an 802.1X, portal, or device administration test, engineers notice: Two sponsor teams use the same portal; a facilities receptionist should issue only short daily credentials, while security managers may approve longer contractor accounts. Which acceptance test confirms the intended ISE operation?

  1. A test expired guest login fails or is reauthorized appropriately while an active unexpired sponsored account continues to work.
  2. The guest receives a notification with only the approved account details, and delivery logs no longer report authentication failure.
  3. A new attendee sees the required AUP and gains only the allowed guest path after acceptance, while refusal does not produce normal access.
  4. The receptionist cannot create a long-lived contractor guest while the designated security sponsor can issue the approved longer duration.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

This directly verifies sponsor group authorized guest account types: The receptionist cannot create a long-lived contractor guest while the designated security sponsor can issue the approved longer duration. The linked remediation is: Define separate authorized sponsor groups and guest-type privileges matching daily visitor and extended contractor access requirements. A result from an unrelated network access function does not prove this requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A test expired guest login fails or is reauthorized appropriately while an active unexpired sponsored account continues to work. This is a different failure mechanism from the current case, which concerns the receptionist cannot create a long-lived contractor guest while the designated security sponsor can issue the approved longer duration.

B:

This option instead describes the guest receives a notification with only the approved account details, and delivery logs no longer report authentication failure. Testing that independent mechanism would not show whether the reported fault has been resolved.

C:

A new attendee sees the required AUP and gains only the allowed guest path after acceptance, while refusal does not produce normal access. The stem describes two sponsor teams use the same portal; a facilities receptionist should issue only short daily credentials, while security managers may approve longer contractor accounts, so this explanation does not account for the observations.

Question 74

A network access incident review reveals: A BYOD provisioning wizard starts normally but certificate issuance fails after engineers omitted the required internal CA service or certificate template chain. Which maintenance practice most directly limits the same risk?

  1. Test both first-time and returning-device sessions and verify that an unknown device cannot skip the onboarding conditions.
  2. Monitor issuing CA health, certificate validity, and renewal capacity before enabling large-scale device onboarding.
  3. Validate cross-SSID DNS, portal, client profile, and certificate trust on every supported device platform before deployment.
  4. Pilot supplicant provisioning across client operating system releases and maintain support instructions for installation restrictions.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

This safeguard directly addresses ise internal ca certificate signing for byod: Monitor issuing CA health, certificate validity, and renewal capacity before enabling large-scale device onboarding. The risk being prevented is: Certificate-based BYOD requires an appropriate issuing CA and working certificate provisioning chain; a portal alone cannot create trusted device credentials. A safeguard aimed at another fault would not control this issue.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Single-SSID onboarding requires a distinct initial authorization state and registration flow before an enrolled device can receive its final trusted access result. “Test both first-time and returning-device sessions and verify that an unknown device cannot skip the onboarding conditions” would remedy that alternative situation, but it would not correct the present issue: certificate-based BYOD requires an appropriate issuing CA and working certificate provisioning chain; a portal alone cannot create trusted device credentials.

C:

“Validate cross-SSID DNS, portal, client profile, and certificate trust on every supported device platform before deployment” is the supported response when dual-SSID BYOD designs require the enrollment workflow or user instructions to move the configured supplicant to the secure certificate-authenticated WLAN. Here the decisive response is “Monitor issuing CA health, certificate validity, and renewal capacity before enabling large-scale device onboarding”, so that different intervention does not meet the stated requirement.

D:

The supported native supplicant provisioning workflow installs the approved wireless settings and device credential; portal registration alone does not configure EAP-TLS. “Pilot supplicant provisioning across client operating system releases and maintain support instructions for installation restrictions” applies to that other condition. The reported evidence is a BYOD provisioning wizard starts normally but certificate issuance fails after engineers omitted the required internal CA service or certificate template chain; this alternative would address the wrong dependency.

Question 75

Before accepting a secure access rollout, the team finds: A group of unmanaged devices has similar MAC OUI values, yet their application traffic reveals distinct HTTP user agent patterns that could refine profiling classification. Which Cisco ISE action most directly resolves the observed problem?

  1. Combine additional reliable DHCP, RADIUS, SNMP, or device-sensor attributes in the profiling policy before assigning a restricted device class.
  2. Enable the appropriate approved HTTP profiling data path and combine its observed attributes with suitable profiler policy rules.
  3. Configure the supported DHCP probe path using the appropriate helper or sensor forwarding design so ISE receives authorized DHCP metadata.
  4. Configure a least-privilege supported SNMP query credential and allow the necessary ISE-to-switch management path for approved profiling probes.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The underlying cause is: MAC OUI alone is a broad manufacturer hint; supported HTTP metadata and other probe attributes can improve endpoint identification confidence. The correct response is: Enable the appropriate approved HTTP profiling data path and combine its observed attributes with suitable profiler policy rules. Confirm by checking: The known test devices receive distinct classifications consistent with their HTTP fingerprint and other trusted attributes.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That intervention addresses profiler classification from oui only, where A MAC OUI provides coarse vendor information, not sufficient proof of a particular endpoint type or authorization group. Here, the relevant failure is instead: MAC OUI alone is a broad manufacturer hint; supported HTTP metadata and other probe attributes can improve endpoint identification confidence.

C:

That intervention addresses dhcp probe endpoint fingerprint capture, where The DHCP probe needs visibility into DHCP traffic or forwarded metadata to learn client parameters such as vendor class and hostname. In this question the necessary remedy is “Enable the appropriate approved HTTP profiling data path and combine its observed attributes with suitable profiler policy rules”, which this alternative does not provide.

D:

That intervention addresses snmp query probe device observation, where An SNMP query probe relies on suitable permissions and network reachability to interrogate supported devices for supplemental endpoint information. The observed condition is a group of unmanaged devices has similar MAC OUI values, yet their application traffic reveals distinct HTTP user agent patterns that could refine profiling classification; this mechanism addresses another problem.

Question 76

During a Cisco ISE access-control troubleshooting session, the team observes: A junior switch operator authenticates through TACACS+ but receives privileged EXEC capabilities beyond the approved read-only troubleshooting role. Which Cisco ISE action most directly resolves the observed problem?

  1. Create a restrictive TACACS command set permitting intended read-only commands and associate it with the contractor's authorization result.
  2. Assign a suitable limited shell profile in the relevant device administration authorization rule and test the effective privilege level.
  3. Enable supported TACACS+ device administration service and configure NAD AAA to use the appropriate ISE device administration policy.
  4. Refine the applicable TACACS command set to deny the unwanted command and test the matched arguments without granting broad bypass.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The underlying cause is: An ISE TACACS shell profile can return session privilege attributes, which must match the operator's role and device requirements. The correct response is: Assign a suitable limited shell profile in the relevant device administration authorization rule and test the effective privilege level. Confirm by checking: The junior operator can inspect permitted status information without automatically gaining unrestricted device configuration privilege.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That intervention addresses tacacs command set show only permission, where TACACS+ command authorization uses an explicit command set and matching authorization rule, separately from successful login to the device. Here, the relevant failure is instead: An ISE TACACS shell profile can return session privilege attributes, which must match the operator's role and device requirements.

C:

That intervention addresses tacacs plus aaa for network device administrators, where RADIUS network access authorization and TACACS+ device administration offer different policy and command-control capabilities in ISE. In this question the necessary remedy is “Assign a suitable limited shell profile in the relevant device administration authorization rule and test the effective privilege level”, which this alternative does not provide.

D:

That intervention addresses tacacs command set deny precedence, where Command authorization must have an effective explicit deny or allowlist design that is evaluated as configured; a broad permit can undermine restrictions. The observed condition is a junior switch operator authenticates through TACACS+ but receives privileged EXEC capabilities beyond the approved read-only troubleshooting role; this mechanism addresses another problem.

Question 77

During an 802.1X, portal, or device administration test, engineers notice: An operations team adds a blanket MAB authorization rule that permits all unknown endpoint MAC addresses onto the corporate user VLAN. What should the engineer implement to restore the intended access flow?

  1. Assign the intended SGT in ISE authorization and configure supported NAD propagation and enforcement with approved group-based policies.
  2. Configure a supported multi-domain authentication host mode and suitable voice and data authorization policy for the phone and PC.
  3. Inspect the matched authorization rule order and conditions, then associate the intended access profile with the approved employee group and endpoint attributes.
  4. Replace the unrestricted default with a deny or restricted onboarding result and authorize only validated endpoint identity groups.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The underlying cause is: MAC addresses are not cryptographic identities, and a permissive default MAB result defeats endpoint inventory controls and enables trivial impersonation. The correct response is: Replace the unrestricted default with a deny or restricted onboarding result and authorize only validated endpoint identity groups. Confirm by checking: A registered device matches its intended limited access and an unknown or spoofed address fails to obtain unrestricted user network access.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That intervention addresses cisco trustsec sgt based segmentation, where Cisco TrustSec security group tags and group-based policy can carry identity classification independent of transient endpoint IP address. Here, the relevant failure is instead: MAC addresses are not cryptographic identities, and a permissive default MAB result defeats endpoint inventory controls and enables trivial impersonation.

B:

That intervention addresses switch host mode with ip phone and pc, where Wired host modes determine how multiple MAC or voice and data sessions are authenticated on one switchport and must match the connected endpoint topology. In this question the necessary remedy is “Replace the unrestricted default with a deny or restricted onboarding result and authorize only validated endpoint identity groups”, which this alternative does not provide.

C:

That intervention addresses authentication policy versus authorization result, where Authentication establishes the caller identity while authorization independently evaluates session context and returns network permissions such as VLAN or dACL. The observed condition is an operations team adds a blanket MAB authorization rule that permits all unknown endpoint MAC addresses onto the corporate user VLAN; this mechanism addresses another problem.

Question 78

An enterprise identity operations team must resolve this situation: A lobby visitor needs temporary Wi-Fi access, but the receptionist cannot issue an account even though the sponsor web page opens successfully. Which remediation most directly corrects the reported policy or access problem?

  1. Allow only the needed DNS, DHCP, portal, and support service destinations in the redirect or preauthentication access path.
  2. Create an appropriate CWA authorization profile with portal URL and redirection ACL and ensure the controller is configured for the intended web-auth flow.
  3. Assign the receptionist an approved sponsor group with the specific guest account creation permissions and time limits needed for the lobby workflow.
  4. Bind a trusted portal certificate with an appropriate SAN and ensure guest clients can validate its issuing CA through the chosen DNS name.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The underlying cause is: Successful Sponsor Portal sign-in does not imply the account has privileges to create the requested guest type or use the intended portal scope. The correct response is: Assign the receptionist an approved sponsor group with the specific guest account creation permissions and time limits needed for the lobby workflow. Confirm by checking: The authorized receptionist creates a time-limited guest account while a user without sponsorship privileges cannot create new visitor access.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That intervention addresses guest redirect acl bootstrap dependencies, where The redirect ACL must permit the specific network prerequisites for the portal while restricting ordinary data-plane access until a user is authenticated. Here, the relevant failure is instead: Successful Sponsor Portal sign-in does not imply the account has privileges to create the requested guest type or use the intended portal scope.

B:

That intervention addresses centralized web authentication redirect policy, where Centralized Web Authentication needs the NAD to receive and enforce an ISE authorization result that includes a supported portal redirection mechanism. In this question the necessary remedy is “Assign the receptionist an approved sponsor group with the specific guest account creation permissions and time limits needed for the lobby workflow”, which this alternative does not provide.

D:

That intervention addresses guest portal https certificate name, where Browsers validate the portal server certificate trust chain and subject alternative names independently of the RADIUS authentication decision. The observed condition is a lobby visitor needs temporary Wi-Fi access, but the receptionist cannot issue an account even though the sponsor web page opens successfully; this mechanism addresses another problem.

Question 79

During a Cisco ISE access-control troubleshooting session, the team observes: An enterprise operates multiple Cisco ISE nodes and a new security engineer tries to edit authorization policy on a node dedicated to RADIUS requests; the policy editing interface is unavailable there. Which Cisco ISE design or authorization principle accounts for this result?

  1. Policy authoring and configuration management are functions of the Policy Administration Node persona, not the policy service persona that handles endpoint requests.
  2. The secondary administration persona is a standby policy management node until the appropriate supported promotion or administrative failover workflow makes it primary.
  3. Policy Service Nodes process RADIUS authentication and authorization near access devices; a distant request path increases dependency on WAN delay and reachability.
  4. Cisco ISE virtual sizing and supported resource reservations affect processing capacity, so merely booting an undersized VM is not proof of a supported design.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The underlying principle is: Policy authoring and configuration management are functions of the Policy Administration Node persona, not the policy service persona that handles endpoint requests. Address this by: Perform the policy changes through the active Primary Administration Node and allow its deployment replication to reach the relevant policy service nodes. The confirming operational observation is: The updated policy is visible through authorized administrative access and a new authentication follows the intended rule on its serving policy node.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The secondary administration persona is a standby policy management node until the appropriate supported promotion or administrative failover workflow makes it primary. “Validate the failed primary state and follow Cisco's supported promotion or failover procedure before resuming configuration changes through the new primary” would remedy that alternative situation, but it would not correct the present issue: policy authoring and configuration management are functions of the Policy Administration Node persona, not the policy service persona that handles endpoint requests.

C:

“Deploy appropriately sized Policy Service Nodes nearer the campus and configure the network devices to use the supported local and backup RADIUS targets” is the supported response when policy Service Nodes process RADIUS authentication and authorization near access devices; a distant request path increases dependency on WAN delay and reachability. Here the decisive response is “Perform the policy changes through the active Primary Administration Node and allow its deployment replication to reach the relevant policy service nodes”, so that different intervention does not meet the stated requirement.

D:

Cisco ISE virtual sizing and supported resource reservations affect processing capacity, so merely booting an undersized VM is not proof of a supported design. “Check Cisco's platform and deployment sizing guidance and allocate a supported virtual appliance profile with required CPU, memory, disk, and resource reservations” applies to that other condition. The reported evidence is an enterprise operates multiple Cisco ISE nodes and a new security engineer tries to edit authorization policy on a node dedicated to RADIUS requests; the policy editing interface is unavailable there; this alternative would address the wrong dependency.

Question 80

An administrator reviewing a Cisco ISE deployment identifies: A corporate employee's 802.1X credentials fail only on one newly deployed ISE PSN even though the same account works on the established node and directory controllers are healthy. What ongoing control should operations standardize for this scenario?

  1. Test duplicate usernames and identity-store selection after adding or changing local and external identity providers.
  2. Monitor AD join status separately on relevant ISE nodes and verify directory connectivity after site or firewall migrations.
  3. Rotate LDAP service credentials safely and monitor certificate and directory schema changes that might invalidate lookups.
  4. Track permitted EAP methods by device cohort and remove deprecated methods only after compatible supplicants are deployed.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

This safeguard directly addresses active directory join for identity lookup: Monitor AD join status separately on relevant ISE nodes and verify directory connectivity after site or firewall migrations. The risk being prevented is: ISE nodes require a functioning relationship to the intended Active Directory identity source, including reachability, name resolution, and a healthy domain join. A safeguard aimed at another fault would not control this issue.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Identity source sequences control where ISE looks up a principal and how defined source selection and not-found behavior are handled. “Test duplicate usernames and identity-store selection after adding or changing local and external identity providers” would remedy that alternative situation, but it would not correct the present issue: ISE nodes require a functioning relationship to the intended Active Directory identity source, including reachability, name resolution, and a healthy domain join.

C:

“Rotate LDAP service credentials safely and monitor certificate and directory schema changes that might invalidate lookups” is the supported response when an LDAP identity store requires a supported connection and bind configuration, appropriate directory credentials, and trust for encrypted transport where configured. Here the decisive response is “Monitor AD join status separately on relevant ISE nodes and verify directory connectivity after site or firewall migrations”, so that different intervention does not meet the stated requirement.

D:

PEAP inner credential authentication and EAP-TLS certificate authentication are different method flows, and an allowed protocol set must match the approved supplicants. “Track permitted EAP methods by device cohort and remove deprecated methods only after compatible supplicants are deployed” applies to that other condition. The reported evidence is a corporate employee's 802.1X credentials fail only on one newly deployed ISE PSN even though the same account works on the established node and directory controllers are healthy; this alternative would address the wrong dependency.
