An engineer integrates Cisco FMC and Cisco ISE using pxGrid. Which role is assigned for Cisco FMC?

A client would typically consume information, whereas FMC provides information about user and device context to ISE.

While ISE can act as a pxGrid server/controller, FMC's role in this specific integration is to publish data.

Cisco ISE is typically considered the pxGrid controller, managing the pxGrid network, while FMC is a specific type of participant.

In a Cisco pxGrid integration between Cisco FMC (Firepower Management Center) and Cisco ISE (Identity Services Engine), the FMC acts as a publisher. The FMC publishes security group tag (SGT) information, user identity, and security posture data to pxGrid, allowing ISE and other subscribed systems to consume this context for policy enforcement and visibility.
