• The Department currently uses Cisco Secure Firewall, Cisco ISE, Cisco Secure Client (Premier) with network access and posture modules and associated Cisco Umbrella entitlements primarily for secure remote access and posture for over 3,000 users.

In addition, we wish to procure new Cisco ISE nodes for our DR datacentre and add to our existing ThousandEyes monitoring solution by adding limited endpoint (client) monitoring. To this end the Department wishes to renew and procure these items under a three-year Enterprise Agreement (EA), paid annually in advance (the amounts listed below are the total licenses needed)… o Cisco Secure Client Premier (per user) subscription licenses x 5,000 o Cisco ISE node licenses (new) x 2 o Cisco ISE node support (on existing and new nodes) x 4 o Existing Cisco ISE node (x2) support instance number: 5859634446 o Cisco ISE Premier (per device) sub...
