Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
The network device must be configured to send SNMP traps to the ISE PSN IP address.
Why this is correct
Without the destination set on the switch, the ISE node will never receive the traps.
- ✗
The endpoint must support SNMP agents.
Why it's wrong here
The switch sends the trap based on link status, not the endpoint.
- ✗
The ISE node must have the SNMP Query probe enabled.
Why it's wrong here
SNMP Query and Traps are distinct probe mechanisms.
- ✗
RADIUS Accounting must be disabled.
Why it's wrong here
RADIUS Accounting is unrelated to SNMP Trap processing.
