EndpointProfile Subscribe

Verification

This test verifies the ability of the 3rd party system to subscribe to the published Endpoint Profile topic.

Definition

The registered pxGrid client will subscribe to the EndpointProfileMetaData capability to obtain changes or modifications in the global profiling policy. Session notifications will include the Endpoint profile id, name, and fully qualified name.

Example

In this example, a pxGrid EndpointProfile Example policy will be created based on the static MAC address of the user's PC. Real-time session notifications on the running Linux script are seen when the pxGrid client subscribes to the EndpointprofileMetadata capability and for any modifications to the ISE profiling policies.

  1. Run endpointprofile_subscribe script.

Run endpointprofile_subscribe script 

./endpointprofile_subscribe.sh -a 192.168.1.23 -u SIM01 -k alpha.jks -p cisco123 -t alpha_root.jks -q cisco123
