If the collectors can't reach your assets via SSH, you can manually collect data for the network modeling process. A command line interface (CLI) connection to the devices is needed, as well as a terminal emulator such as Putty or SecureCRT, capable of logging data presented via the show commands used.

Step 1:

  • Log into the ArubaOS switch CLI using your assigned credentials.

Note that you will need access to run show commands along with the show running-config command.

  • Run and log the output from the following commands:

show running-configuration
show ip route
show arp
show vlans
show cdp neighbors
show lldp remote-device
show version
exit 
  • Once all data is collected from the Cisco IOS appliances, create a .zip file named Collector_Upload_ ArubaOS.zip containing the data from ArubaOS switch appliances.

Step 2:

  • Log into Epiphany

  • In the left menu, expand Source Management and then select Configuration.

  • In the Configuration area, expand Site Collectors and then select .

  • In the Add New Collector form, enter a Name for the collector, and in Site, enter the location of collector. Enter any desired notes for the collector in Notes.

  • Select Save.

  • The new site collector displays in the Site Collectors panel. Select Actions, and then select Download Image.

Step 3:

  • Once the PEM file is downloaded, it can be used to perform SCP of the compressed configuration folder to the Epiphany Collector.

The PEM file and map file can be anywhere on the file system, so provide that file’s pathway for the SCP command.

  • Open a terminal and run the following command:
