Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) Ordering Steps
Here’s guide which can help in finding solution of your problem
1. Estimate the number of concurrent endpoints in the network.
2. Estimate the number of appliances (physical or virtual) needed to support the number of concurrent endpoints
     in the network.
3. Select the appropriate type of appliance suitable for your deployment. (Reference the appliance selection.)
4. Select the appropriate type of license suitable for your deployment. (Reference the license selection.)
5. Select the appropriate level of services available from Cisco Advanced Services or a Certified Partner for design,
    Deployment and sustaining services of the ISE deployment.
Step 1: Estimate the Number of Concurrent Endpoints in the Network
Estimating the total number of concurrent endpoints is dependent on a number of variables. An approach to consider would be to take into account:
• Number of employees in the organization
• Average number of devices per employee (desktop, laptop, smartphone, desk IP phone, etc.)
• Number of switch ports currently in the organization
• Number of access points deployed in the organization
• Average number of devices per access point
• Dynamic IP address range being used
• Average number of guests expected to join the network
• Inventory of non-user devices such as IP cameras, printers, IP-enabled projectors, etc.
A combination of factors that includes but is not limited to the above factors could be used to determine the total number of concurrent endpoints in the network.
