Show Inventory

Here a little tip, if you are using Gen 2 box, on a 5.x code.

You need to get the serial number, for a license/TAC case etc, and its stuck in the rack, 3000 miles away.....

There are 2 ways to get this, from the GUI, and from the CLI.

From the CLI - If you SSH into the MARS box, and run a SHOW INVENTORY, you get the model number, whether its a local or global controller, plus the Serial Number.

[pnadmin]$
[pnadmin]$ show inventory
NAME: "Chassis", DESCR: "CS-MARS-XXX Local Controller"
PID: CS-MARS-XXX, VID: V01, SN: MXXXXXXXXXXX

From the GUI - If you browse to Admin/System Maintenance/Set License/ and click on the existing License file...



You will find the Serial number in the text.
