Master the deployment and configuration of Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) through this intensive, hands-on lab. Designed for Field Engineers, this workshop moves you from theory to production-readiness by simulating a real-world deployment for "Stark Industries" within a Cisco dCloud environment.

Learning Objectives

• Deploy: Build a distributed ISE architecture from the ground up.
• Secure: Implement robust authentication, profiling, and guest access policies.
• Manage: Gain proficiency in device administration, patching, and lifecycle management.
• Confidence: Build the technical expertise required to position and deploy ISE in production customer environments.
