Explanation
Cisco ISE deployment models are defined by the number of nodes: A standalone deployment has exactly one ISE node running all personas (Administration, Policy Service, and Monitoring) on a single server. A distributed deployment is any environment with two or more ISE nodes, where each node can be assigned one or more specific personas. Even with just two nodes, as soon as you add a second ISE node to an existing standalone node, ISE transitions the deployment into distributed mode. 'Active' (B) is not an ISE deployment mode name. 'Standard' (D) is not a valid ISE deployment term. The two-node scenario is definitively categorized as 'distributed' in Cisco ISE documentation.
