This is the Meraki Config Manager source code. Using the Meraki Dashboard API and Flask, we have developed an application that can provide a simple way to backup and restore Meraki settings into a file. This file can then be edited by network teams to suit the needs of the Meraki network.

$ git clone https://github.com/gve-sw/meraki-config-manager.git
First make sure that you have Python 3 installed on your machine. We will then be using venv to create an isolated environment with only the necessary packages.
$ pip install virtualenv
Change to your project folder
$ cd meraki-config-manager
Create the venv
$ virtualenv venv
Activate your venv
$ source venv/bin/activate
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
You can deploy this prototype in a lab environment or on your own Meraki dashboard online here.
To generate an API KEY, refer to the documentation here. You will use this for getting an ORGANIZATION ID, and using this application.
You must select an organization to manage and use its ORGANIZATION ID. You may do so by using Meraki's Postman collection here and GET the list of organizations, or use Meraki's API Docs to generate a request here.
Fill in the details of your Meraki deployment in the DETAILS.py file
MERAKI_API_KEY = 'YOUR MERAKI API KEY'
MERAKI_ORGANIZATION_ID = 'YOUR MERAKI ORG ID'Launch the config script. Make sure that you have your venv activated.
$ flask run --port=5000
Launch your web browser and navigate to localhost:5000 or with your configured port.
You will be asked whether to backup or restore configs
The Backup Page will allow you to select the networks you would like to backup. These will then be saved as .json files in the configs folder of the app
After back up, data will be stored in data.json in the configs folder with the following JSON format

}The Restore Page will allow you to choose from existing backup .json files the configs folder, and select which networks it should restore
Currently, the code supports backing up and restoring the following configurations:
- MX L7 Firewall Rules
- MX 1-to-1 NAT Rules
- Wireless Settings
- Switch ACLs
- Switch Port Schedules
- AMP Settings - if applicable
In backup.py, you are able to modify the backup and restore functions to add additional configurations that you may want to use. You may visit the Meraki Dashboard API Docs for more information.
