This feature is in Early Release/BETA. Please contact your Epiphany Systems support or sales contact to learn more.
For all organizations and networks being analyzed by Epiphany, follow the steps in this section.
Log in to the Cisco Meraki dashboard using the Epiphany user’s credentials.
To select the various organizations and networks, the side panel has a drop-down menu for every organization and network linked to the Meraki Dashboard instance. In the side panel, select Network-wide and then Topology.
Not all networks will have a topology, for instance, some networks that are dedicated to user VPNS. All available maps should be extracted to create the most robust Epiphany network model.
Select the L3 – Networking Layer tab, then select Download, which is found to the left of the Print button. This will download an SVG file of the network map to the local device.
Once you collect every map from the Meraki dashboard, create a compressed file of the folder they are stored in. Next you'll submit the file using Secure Copy Protocol, as described below.

Once the PEM file is downloaded, it can be used to perform SCP of the compressed map folder to the Epiphany Collector.
You will need to send the file to the ‘upload’ user using the Linux command shown below. Enter the following command within terminal in Linux:
Note that the PEM file and map file can be anywhere on the file system, so provide that file’s pathway for the SCP command.
Download PEM file to the local device.
