350-701 Deploys Cisco ISE for network access control Practice Question

An organization deploys Cisco ISE for network access control. After successful 802.1X authentication, a user's device is found to be missing critical patches via posture assessment. The administrator wants to dynamically move the user to a remediation VLAN without requiring the user to reconnect. Which ISE capability enables this?

Answer choices

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

Change of Authorization (CoA)

Change of Authorization (CoA) allows ISE to dynamically change authorization attributes (e.g., VLAN, ACL) for an already authenticated session.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Change of Authorization (CoA)

    Why this is correct

    CoA enables ISE to update session authorization in real time, such as moving to a remediation VLAN.

  • RADIUS Accounting

    Why it's wrong here

    RADIUS Accounting tracks session statistics but does not change authorization.

  • MAB reauthentication

    Why it's wrong here

    MAB reauthentication would reauthenticate the device but does not dynamically change attributes without reconnection.

  • Device Sensor profiling

    Why it's wrong here

    Device Sensor profiling collects device attributes but does not modify authorization.

Visual reference

Switch VLAN 10 Sales (192.168.10.0/24) PC-A PC-B VLAN 20 HR (192.168.20.0/24) PC-C PC-D Router VLANs isolate traffic — inter-VLAN routing requires a Layer 3 device
