300-710 SNCF Integration Practice Question
An engineer configures Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense to ingest SGTs from Cisco ISE via pxGrid and wants to enforce access control based on these tags. Which TWO requirements must be met for the firewall to successfully enforce SGT-based policies? (Choose two)
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
✓
An active and healthy pxGrid connection between ISE and FMC to synchronize IP-to-SGT mappings.
Enforcing SGT-based policies requires an active pxGrid connection for mapping retrieval and SXP/inline propagation so data plane packets carry the tag metadata.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
An active eStreamer subscription for intrusion event streaming.
Why it's wrong here
eStreamer is for SIEM event export, not SGT enforcement.
- ✗
Syslog server configuration with local4 facility enabled.
Why it's wrong here
Syslog export is not required for SGT policy enforcement.
- ✗
Active Directory domain controller LDAP integration directly configured on the FTD CLI.
Why it's wrong here
Directory integration is handled by ISE; FTD consumes pxGrid/SXP data.
- ✓
An active and healthy pxGrid connection between ISE and FMC to synchronize IP-to-SGT mappings.
Why this is correct
pxGrid provides the runtime IP-to-SGT mapping table consumed by the firewall.
- ✓
Proper SXP peering or inline TrustSec configuration so data plane packets retain SGT metadata across the network.
Why this is correct
Data packets must carry or be mapped via SXP to the corresponding SGT for policy enforcement.
