Correct answer & explanation

✓

Endpoint authenticates via 802.1X or MAB

The flow starts with endpoint authentication via 802.1X/MAB, then ISE collects profiling data (e.g., DHCP, HTTP). ISE matches the endpoint to a profiling policy, assigns an identity group, and finally applies the appropriate authorization policy (e.g., SGT, VLAN).

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.
