Note
Use the Cisco Product Identification Tool to locate your product serial number
before submitting a request for service online or by phone. You can access this
tool from the Cisco Technical Support & Documentation website by clicking the
Tools & Resources link, clicking the All Tools (A-Z) tab, and then choosing
Cisco Product Identification Tool from the alphabetical list. This tool offers
three search options: by product ID or model name; by tree view; or, for certain

illustration of your product with the serial number label location highlighted.
Locate the serial number label on your product and record the information before
placing a service call.
