Exam 300-715 topic 1 question 15 discussion

C is correct-- a fully distributed deployment means every persona has a dedicated node.

A fully distributed Cisco ISE deployment includes: 1. Policy Service persona: responsible for policy evaluation and enforcement. 2. Monitoring persona: responsible for collecting and analyzing network data. 3. Administration persona: responsible for managing the overall deployment. 4. pxGrid controller: responsible for integrating with third-party security solutions. 5. Policy nodes: responsible for enforcing policies on network devices. 6. Monitoring nodes: responsible for collecting and analyzing network data. 7. pxGrid nodes: responsible for integrating with third-party security solutions. 8. Database nodes: responsible for storing configuration and operational data. 9. Load balancers: responsible for distributing traffic across the deployment. 10. Redundancy and high availability mechanisms: ensure that the deployment is always available and resilient to failures.

A fully distributed Cisco ISE deployment includes all Cisco ISE personas on their own dedicated nodes, as well as pxGrid controller and pxGrid nodes for integration with third-party security solutions, database nodes for storing configuration and operational data, load balancers for distributing traffic, and redundancy and high availability mechanisms for ensuring availability and resilience to failures.

The correct answer is C. Reference: CCNP Security Identity Management SISE 300-715 Official Cert Guide, Chapter 6, Page 117, Figure 6-4. In a fully distributed deployment each persona is on it's own dedicated node. This is the only deployment model that allows you to scale beyond the 5 PSNs.

C should be the correct one. Especially since the question specifically says FULLY distributed.

definitely C...

I think many answers here are wrong. This test is not good.
