DAY 3 OF ISE PROJECT
« on: November 26, 2013, 12:32:40 AM »
It's not quite eventful but had enough time to try out how one of the new feature of ISE; setup assistance works. After trying out how it will work I was able with hoping to leverage on it.

After running it everything was ok but auto can never replace custom. It can be right to say that setup wizard primary purpose is for demonstration at Proof of Concept, but another good thing about what I got is the way the setup assistance pull all the policy server addresses and ensure there were reference in acl created. The feature is quite good.

From the output I got I can now further modify it to suit  my need. I think this should may make a list in tips for faster deployment.

Day 3 quite finish with some mini configuration to test out how setup assistance will perform and some test were conducted. Hope to continue from there on DAY 4..

My take on the setup assistance is to be used only for quick lab test or PoC, and not as a shortcut to setup production and avoid learning ISE properly. The reasons being it creates a lot of config for you from the input info (good) but people may not realize where they have been created and why, and not know how to troubleshoot when things do not work (not good), which will forces you to spend more time back-tracing (or call TAC). You might as well create everything manually, which does not really take that long to get things going, and know exactly where things are and have complete control on all the naming convention.

Yeah while your observation is true everyone has what is best for them. Here I do not have issue knowing where each of the config is dropped. But for learning purpose it's definitely not a cool feature.
