Lists the expected Cisco ISE Cloud Central Agent activity after setup, including initial connection, data synchronization, session updates, health signals, and software update checks.
Refer to this topic to understand when the Agent connects, synchronizes data, reports health, and checks for software updates.
Initial and incremental identity-object synchronization
After a fresh installation, the Cisco ISE Cloud Central Agent performs a one-time inventory and uploads identity objects to the Cisco Cloud Control dashboard. The time required for user and endpoint objects to appear depends on factors such as traffic in the Cisco ISE deployment, database size, and latency between Cisco ISE and Cisco Cloud Control.
The Cisco ISE Cloud Central Agent’s CPU, memory, and disk limits are tuned internally based on the size of the PAN node and the deployment type. For Cisco ISE deployment sizing information, see the Cisco ISE Performance and Scalability Guide.
Sample time for user and endpoint objects to appear after fresh installation
|
Cisco ISE database contents |
Approximate time |
|---|---|
|
150,000 endpoints (active and inactive) |
60 minutes |
|
1 million endpoints (active and inactive) |
4 hours |
|
4 million endpoints (active and inactive) |
12 hours |
|
25,000 internal users |
60 minutes |
These are approximate times based on sample test data. Actual times vary by deployment. After the initial upload, the agent runs periodic discovery checks every 15 minutes to find and update incremental objects.
