Explanation

The Admin node (Policy Administration Node, or PAN) in Cisco ISE does not support automatic failover. In a high-availability ISE deployment with a primary and secondary PAN, if the primary PAN fails, an administrator must manually promote the secondary PAN to primary - this process is not automatic. In contrast, Policy Services Nodes (PSNs) can be load-balanced and provide redundancy automatically, and Monitoring nodes can be configured with a primary/secondary relationship for log collection. The lack of automatic failover on the Admin node is an important architectural consideration for ISE deployments.
