# PAN-OS and Panorama SSH/Manual Collection

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

#### Step 1: 

* Authenticate to the device.
* Have the PAN-OS CLI output data in an XML format. Copy and paste the following commands into the CLI in operational mode:

```
set cli op-command-xml-output on
```

* Get the full running configuration of PAN-OS or Panorama. Copy and paste the following commands into the CLI in operational mode:

```
show config running
```

#### Step 2:

* Once all data is collected from the Palo Alto appliances, create a .zip named **Collector\_Upload\_PANOS.zip** containing the data from the Palo Alto appliances. To SCP the file to Epiphany's on-premises collector, continue to the next step. 

#### Step 3:

* Using a web browser, go to your Epiphany dashboard
* Download the PEM file to the local device.
* Once the PEM file is downloaded, it can be used to perform SCP of the compressed map folder to the Epiphany Collector.

#### Step 4:

Send the file to the ‘upload’ user using the following commands, based on your operating system:

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Linux" %}

* Send the file to the ‘upload’ user using the following commands:

```
scp -i ~/.ssh/key.pem <Collector_Upload> upload@<Collector_IP>:~/upload
```

{% hint style="warning" %}
The PEM file and map file can be anywhere on the file system, so provide that file’s pathway for the SCP command.
{% endhint %}
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Windows" %}

* Enable OpenSSH Client on Windows 10 by going to **Settings** > **Apps and features** > **Optional Features**
* Select **Add a feature**.
* Search for **OpenSSH Client**. If it's not already installed, install it. &#x20;
* Open a command prompt and use the following command:

```
scp -i ~/.ssh/key.pem < Collector_Upload> upload@<Collector_IP>:~/upload
```

{% hint style="warning" %}
The PEM file and map file can be anywhere on the file system, so provide that file’s pathway for the SCP command.
{% endhint %}
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
