Joseph,
Which version of ISE? Unlike ACS, ISE can use a whitelist to check only domains which you want it to look and such. There are several dashboards on the AD side that will let you know the latency, and reports in ISE as well as to how long it takes to fetch a user. And using Cacti or other monitoring tools you could also check your latency and graph it.

So we are running ISE which is backended by Active Directory. We have been adding sections of campus to wireless authentication of eduroam and things seemed fine with no issues that we could see. When we finally added the last bit of our environment on Friday, this were going great but then Monday happened and all hell broke loose and authentication went in the toilet. It seemed that ISE couldn’t get answers from AD fast enough and switched to our DR site which made things WAY worse and we had to move all our stuff back to our previous platform. Since that incident, we have tweaked all the settings we can find from minimizing DNS lookups to hiding the DR site from ISE. AD is kind of a black box, so there is only so much we see or find documentation for. My question is, is there a way to test if our AD backend if strong enough to handle our campus of 20,000 wireless devices moving around during a class change without putting it in production first and crossing our fingers?
