350-701 Practice Question: An engineer is configuring Cisco ISE for guest…
An engineer is configuring Cisco ISE for guest access. The requirement is that guests must accept an acceptable use policy (AUP) before being granted network access. Which portal type should be used?
⚠ Common exam trap
A common mix-up: candidates confuse the 'hotspot guest portal' (which also shows a splash page) with the self-registration portal, but the hotspot portal does not require the user to create credentials or formally accept an AUP as a registration step—it only provides a simple click-through without identity creation.

Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Self-registration guest portal
The self-registration guest portal is the correct choice because it allows guests to create their own credentials and, crucially, includes a configurable step where the user must accept an Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) before being granted network access. This portal type is specifically designed for scenarios where guests self-onboard and must acknowledge a policy, which is a core requirement for compliance in many guest access deployments.
