ISE license - user and device

[muthumohan]

Hi,

Just a question on ISE license consumption.

If a user logs in and gets authenticated via ISE on a device that is already authenticated (device authentication), does it consume 2 licenses, one for the device and one for the user?

This is nowhere clearly told in any cisco documentation.

Can anybody help me clarify this?

Thank you,

Mohan

It is based on Endpoint not user. Please have a look on " How Licenses Are Consumed in Cisco ISE Software " from

Licenses are counted against concurrent, active sessions. An active session is one for which a RADIUS Accounting Start is received but RADIUS Accounting Stop has not yet been received. Sessions without RADIUS activity are automatically purged from Active Session list every 5 days or if the endpoint is deleted from the system.
