Explanation

In a Cisco ISE distributed deployment, redundancy can be achieved by deploying multiple nodes where each node runs all three personas: Administration (PAN), Policy Service (PSN), and Monitoring (MnT). This means if any single node fails completely, the remaining nodes can still perform all ISE functions without a service outage. This is in contrast to a deployment where personas are siloed on dedicated nodes, where the failure of a dedicated MnT or PAN node would cause loss of that specific function. The distributed model with overlapping personas is Cisco's recommended approach for achieving full high-availability and persona-level redundancy.
