Accelerate your Cisco ISE deployment with SecurView’s ISE Deployment Assistant (IDA)!

 
 

IDA 5.0 brings in new features intended to provide enhanced usability and refinement to existing features. With 5.0, users have more options for additional analysis for better control during the device configuration push and verification phase of the ISE rollout.

 

More Info

Support for non-Cisco devices:

Users can push the configuration to non-Cisco devices and generate validation reports for those devices. For this to work, devices must be associated with “Network Device Profiles.” Then, IDA will identify the device type and analyze the existing configuration.

Support for the IBNS 2.0 identity template:

IDA can create an IBNS 2.0 template for ISE use cases. A new addition to IDA is generating an elastic template for the critical authentication VLAN parameter. IDA can identify the current IBNS template type on a device and can generate the validation report for the devices configured with IBNS 2.0.

Custom Service Template:

Users can create custom templates and push them to devices.

Port Summary Report Enhancements:

IDA maintains a history of all the previously generated Port Summary Reports. Additionally, using the interactive graph in the Port Summary Report, users can identify detailed information for each device port. The information for each device port is categorized by:

  • Total ports (Access)

  • Closed ports

  • Low Impact ports

  • Monitor ports and unsecured ports

Overview

Implementing Cisco ISE to add network access control to a wired network is a time-consuming task. Users would have to verify the compatibility of the access switch software with ISE, create the configuration template, push the new configuration to the switches cand verify that endpoints can connect after the change on hundreds of switches and in multiple locations.

 

Why IDA

SecurView’s ISE Deployment Assistant (IDA) is a product designed to provide an efficient and predictive rollout of Cisco ISE. IDA is a multi-tenant application that helps accelerate an organization’s Cisco ISE implementation. IDA reduces the manual effort required to rollout ISE by 50-70% primarily because it helps automate labor-intensive tasks before, during, and after the deployment. Features include:

  • Automating the Device Readiness Assessment

  • Generation of Service templates for required ISE use cases

  • Automated Network Access Device (NAD) configuration

  • Deployment & Compliance reports

Product Benefits

 

IDA reduces the manual effort required to rollout ISE by 50-70% primarily because it helps automate labor-intensive tasks before, during, and after the deployment.

 

Before Deployment

Users benefit from features such as: a hardware & software compatibility check, network device software version recommendation, and the ability to label additional device details.

During Deployment

b-300x186.png

Users have the ability to auto-generate configuration templates, automate the dynamic port selection, and push the network device configuration, validate that endpoints are able to connect to the network, and have the correct ISE policy applied to them.

After Deployment

Users have the ability to analyze details and reports of the deployment through:

  • Validation report

  • Port visibility spectrum

  • Detailed Device Configuration

  • Compliance report

Case Studies

Oil & Gas Production Company

A production company in oil & gas had an ISE set up that was inactive and in monitoring mode for two years spanning through a network environment of 13 switches and 4413 ports.

 
 

Non-profit Research Hospital

A non-profit research hospital based in the US with several campuses and regional locations across the US with nearly 4,000 physicians and scientists and over 50,000 allied health staff.

 
 

Healthcare System

A healthcare system with multiple hospital sites through VA, SC, NY & MD needed to roll out access to close to 55,000 ports.
