Cisco PIX serial numbers from a remote location

On the Cisco 501, the Sh Ver command shows a serial number that is 2 charâ€™s too short. Add â€œ88" to the front of it to get the real serial number.

So in the Show Ver, if the serial number shows as â€œ123456789", then the real serial number would be "88123456789".

I find this highly debatable. Cisco is not stupid. In addition to that it didn't work out for me as per your blog. Perhaps this is valid for some cases.

It worked for me with a PIX 515E (verified with the paper label in the bottom).

Besides, in the cisco site the picture that explains how to find the serial number of the pix is just plain wrong.

Oh well. Then again we could always ditch the pix since they aren't much of a device anyways

Waste of bloody money!
