Mathieu, What version of ISE and WLC are you running? We had a memory leak in ISE 2.6 which was causing latency. About a month ago, we patched and then had TAC do a manual cleanup of the db. So far so good.

We have 3 Cisco WLC 5520’s (one of these is standby), around 850ap’s and 5 Cisco ISE’s (1 admin node, 1 monitor node and 3 radius-only nodes). We have this setup since 2018. There were some problems sometimes but nothing major. Now recently it’s taking a long time for people to get connected. We have around 20k students and 3K staff with peaks to nearly 9K associations. The problem is that it is difficult to get connected sometimes. I see the user trying to connect in the WLC’s but don’t see them trying in the ISE’s (it looks like the attempt gets lost somewher). I can see the following worrying log message in the wlc: RADIUS auth-server X.X.X.X unavailable Or These logs in the ISE 5441 Endpoint started new session while the packet of previous session is being processed. Dropping new session. 12930 Supplicant stopped responding to ISE after sending it the first PEAP message It looks like there is some sort of bottleneck between WLC and ISE. Further information: the identity store is a bunch of Windows Domain Controllers (6 in total). Any ideas?
