The best way to know that your configuration is working properly is to measure with a tool outside of ISE. Unfortunately, authentications per second is not available via SNMP or the REST API. What does happen is for each authentication a SYSLOG message is generated. The following messages are for every passed and failed authentication: […]

Part 3 – IOS-XE Load Balancing
Cisco is a large organization. Sometimes different software development teams don’t talk to one another as much as we would like. As it happens, the IOS-XE team developed a way of load balancing RADIUS request across multiple RADIUS servers. I can’t claim to have read every Cisco whitepaper and I haven’t seen every Cisco Live […]

Part 2 – Enter the Load Balancer
In Part 1 we explored the simplest configuration possible. Now let’s introduce a load balancer appliance. I’m just going to put it out there. Load balancers are a necessary evil. They are for protocols that are too dumb to figure out how to load balance themselves at the application layer. But we’re going to find […]
