The serial number label is located as follows:

•
Brocade 300, 4100, 4900, 5100, 5300, 7500, 8000, and Brocade Encryption Switch—On
the switch ID pull-out tab located inside the chassis on the port side on the left

Use the wwn command to display the switch WWN.
If you cannot use the wwn command because the switch is inoperable, you can get the WWN
from the same place as the serial number, except for the Brocade DCX. For the Brocade DCX,
access the numbers on the WWN cards by removing the Brocade logo plate at the top of the
non-port side of the chassis.
