Checkpoint Serial Number, Mac Address and Model



Checkpoint Serial Number, Mac Address and Model

There are several ways to get Checkpoint serial number, mac address and model in order to either open a case with support or to get the information for archive purpose.
First thing is the serial number. In order to get the serial number of the Checkpoint device, one can go to the expert mode of checkpoint (login to ssh -> type ‘expert’) and type following command:
  • dmiparse | grep ‘Product Name’ -> to get the model of the checkpoint device
  • dmiparse | grep ‘Serial Number’ -> to get the serial number
  • ifconfig -a | grep ‘HWaddr’ -> to get the mac address (usually Mgmt port is used)
  • cplic print is also useful to get the list of the device mac address
As for the model itself, there are certain model need to be mapped according to what is being reflected on the dmiparse | grep ‘Product Name’ as below table
