Unique Device Identifier Overview
Each identifiable product is an entity, as defined by the Entity MIB (RFC-2737) and its supporting documents.
Some entities, such as a chassis, will have sub-entities like slots. An Ethernet switch might be a member of
a super-entity like a stack. Most Cisco entities that can be ordered leave the factory with an assigned UDI.
The UDI information is printed on a label that is affixed to the physical hardware device, and it is also stored
electronically on the device in order to facilitate remote retrieval.
A UDI consists of the following elements:
•
Product identifier (PID)
•
Version identifier (VID)
•
Serial number (SN)
The PID is the name by which the product can be ordered; it has been historically called the “Product Name”
or “Part Number.” This is the identifier that one would use to order an exact replacement part.
The VID is the version of the product. Whenever a product has been revised, the VID will be incremented.
The VID is incremented according to a rigorous process derived from Telcordia GR-209-CORE, an industry
guideline that governs product change notices.
The SN is the vendor-unique serialization of the product. Each manufactured product will carry a unique serial
number assigned at the factory, which cannot be changed in the field. This is the means by which to identify
an individual, specific instance of a product.
Benefits of the Unique Device Identifier Retrieval Feature
•
Identifies individual Cisco products in your networks.
•
Reduces operating expenses for asset management through simple, cross-platform, consistent identification
of Cisco products.
•
Identifies PIDs for replaceable products.
•
Facilitates discovery of products subject to recall or revision.
