Use case
Migration plans become risky when inventory, configuration translation, pilot validation, cutover, and rollback are documented in separate artifacts.
Catalyst Center to Meraki Migration Steps
Migration plans become risky when inventory, configuration translation, pilot validation, cutover, and rollback are documented in separate artifacts.
How it solves it
A staged method turns the migration into an auditable sequence with explicit prerequisites, mappings, approval gates, pilot evidence, and rollback checks.
Architecture
The design separates inputs, orchestration, AI assistance, and human verification. Secrets and environment-specific identifiers belong in runtime configuration, never in this page or source control.
Software stack
Markdown planning, structured workbooks kept outside the publish set, API/CLI mapping concepts, validation checklists.

AI and AgenticOps
AI can summarize inventories and propose mappings, but AgenticOps should enforce approval gates, preserve evidence, and prevent autonomous cutover without human authorization.
