SISE Profiler Practice Question
You have created a custom profiler condition that is not matching endpoints correctly. Where should you check the live authentication and profiling logs to verify if the attribute is being received by ISE?
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
✓
Operations > RADIUS Livelogs
The RADIUS Live Logs or Profiling Live Logs under Operations are the standard locations to verify attribute collection.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Administration > System > Logging
Why it's wrong here
This is for general system log settings.
- ✓
Operations > RADIUS Livelogs
Why this is correct
RADIUS Livelogs show the attributes received during the authentication process.
- ✗
Policy > Profiling > Profiling Policies
Why it's wrong here
This is for defining policies, not viewing live data.
- ✗
Context Visibility > Endpoints
Why it's wrong here
This shows the final result, not the raw incoming attributes.
Quick reference
AAA Protocol Comparison
| Protocol | Port(s) | Encryption | Transport | Primary Use |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| RADIUS | 1812 / 1813 | Password only | UDP | Network access control |
| TACACS+ | 49 | Full packet | TCP | Device administration |
| Diameter | 3868 | Full session | TCP / SCTP | Carrier / mobile networks |
| 802.1X | — | EAP-based | Layer 2 | Port-based access control |
TACACS+ encrypts the entire packet; RADIUS only encrypts the password field — a key exam distinction.
