components and their serial numbers, enter the following command-line interface
(CLI) command:
user@host> show chassis hardware
Hardware inventory:
Item Version Part number Serial number Description

NOTE: In the show chassis hardware command, the PIM slot number is reported as
an FPC number and the PIM number (always 0) is reported as the PIC number.
Most components also have a serial number ID label attached to the component
body.
