show inventory
CF-691
Cisco IOS Configuration Fundamentals Command Reference
July 2008
For diagnostic purposes, the show inventory command can be used with the raw keyword to display
every RFC 2737 entity including those without a PID, UDI, or other physical identification.
Note The raw keyword option is primarily intended for troubleshooting problems with the show inventory
command itself.
Router# show inventory raw
NAME: “Chassis”, DESCR: “12008/GRP chassis”
PID: , VID: V01, SN: 63915640
NAME: “slot 0”, DESCR: “GRP”
PID: , VID: V01, SN: CAB021300R5

NAME: “slot 3”, DESCR: “4 port 0C3 POS multimode”
PID: LC-4OC3/POS-MM , VID: V01, SN: CAB014900GU
Enter the show inventory command with an entity argument value to display the UDI information for a
specific type of Cisco entity installed in the networking device. In this example, a list of Cisco entities
that match the sfslot argument string is displayed.
Router# show inventory sfslot
NAME: “sfslot 1”, DESCR: “GSR 12008 Switch Fabric Card”
PID: GSR8-SFC , VID: V01, SN: CAB0428ALOS
NAME: “sfslot 2”, DESCR: “GSR 12008 Switch Fabric Card”

NAME: “sfslot 3”, DESCR: “GSR 12008 Switch Fabric Card”
PID: GSR8-SFC , VID: V01, SN: CAB0429ARD7
You can request even more specific UDI information using the show inventory command with an entity
argument value that is enclosed in quotation marks. In this example, only the details for the entity that
exactly matches the sfslot 1 argument string are displayed.
Router# show inventory “sfslot 1”
NAME: “sfslot 1”, DESCR: “GSR 12008 Switch Fabric Card”
