Cisco ISE allows a global configuration to issue a Change of Authorization (CoA) in the Profiler Configuration page that enables the profiling service with more control over endpoints that are already authenticated.
One of the settings to configure the CoA type is “Reauth”. This option is used to enforce reauthentication of an already authenticated endpoint when it is profiled.

A reflection DDoS uses intermediary servers to rebound traffic toward the victim while the attacker spoofs the victim’s address, so only the reflectors appear as the source, effectively hiding the attacker’s identity.

A registration key is mandatory for establishing the secure, trusted connection between a managed device and Secure Firewall Management Center during the enrollment process.

Automatic training based on user behavior adapts and delivers phishing awareness education when users exhibit risky actions, directly reducing phishing susceptibility.

To enable PC1 (which is in VLAN10) to access the internet, the following configuration steps are required:
1. Create VLAN10: This ensures that the VLAN for PC1 is properly configured on the switch.
2. Assign port Fa0/6 to VLAN10: The port Fa0/6, where PC1 is connected, must be assigned to VLAN10 to associate the device with the correct VLAN.
The configuration ensures proper communication between VLAN10 and the router for interVLAN routing and internet access.

To block a URL, simply enter it into a blocked destination list, or create a new blocked destination list just for URLs. To do this, navigate to Policies > Destination Lists, expand a Destination list, add a URL and then click Save.

Based on the configuration script in the image, the interface GigabitEthernet0/0/18 is configured for both
802.1X and MAB authentication. The command authentication port-control auto enables 802.1X authentication on the port, while the command dot1x pae authenticator enables the port to act as an authenticator. The command authentication host-mode multi-domain enables MAB authentication on the port, and allows two devices to be authenticated, one in the voice VLAN and one in the data VLAN. Therefore, when a device tries to connect to the port, the switch will first attempt 802.1X authentication, and if it fails, it will fall back to MAB authentication using the device’s MAC address. The switch will then contact the ISE server, which is configured as the RADIUS server group ise-group, to verify the device’s credentials and assign the appropriate access level based on the ISE policy. The ISE policy can also dynamically assign VLANs, ACLs, or service policies to the device based on its identity and posture. References := Some possible references are:

The intent API in Cisco Catalyst Center is used to configure and manage devices by expressing desired network outcomes, allowing the controller to translate those intents into the necessary device-level configurations.

Explanation Private Network Monitoring (PNM) provides visibility and threat detection for the on-premises network, delivered from the cloud as a SaaS solution. It is the perfect solution for organizations who prefer SaaS products and desire better awareness and security in their on-premises environments while reducing capital expenditure and operational overhead. It works by deploying lightweight software in a virtual machine or server that can consume a variety of native sources of telemetry or extract metadata from network packet flow. It encrypts this metadata and sends it to the Stealthwatch Cloud analytics platform for analysis. Stealthwatch Cloud consumes metadata only. The packet payloads are never retained or transferred outside the network. This lab focuses on how to configure a Stealthwatch Cloud Private Network Monitoring (PNM) Sensor, in order to provide visibility and effectively identify active threats, and monitors user and device behavior within onpremises networks. The Stealthwatch Cloud PNM Sensor is an extremely flexible piece of technology, capable of being utilized in a number of different deployment scenarios. It can be deployed as a complete Ubuntu based virtual appliance on different hypervisors (e.g. -VMware, VirtualBox). It can be deployed on hardware running a number of different Linux-based operating systems.

To apply a more specific outbound policy to a defined group of users (the acquired employees), you create an Identification Profile that matches their source subnet so the policy targets only their traffic.

DMVPN and sVTI are both VPN technologies that use IPsec to secure the tunnel traffic. However, they differ in how they establish and manage the tunnels. DMVPN supports dynamic tunnel establishment, which means that the VPN endpoints can create and delete tunnels on demand, based on the routing information. This allows for a scalable and flexible VPN topology, where the endpoints can communicate directly with each other without going through a central hub. sVTI, on the other hand, supports static tunnel establishment, which means that the VPN endpoints have to manually configure the tunnel source and destination addresses.
This requires a one-to-one mapping between the endpoints, and limits the VPN topology to a hub-and-spoke model, where the endpoints can only communicate with the hub. Therefore, DMVPN is more suitable for large and dynamic VPN networks, while sVTI is more suitable for small and stable VPN networks. References:
