Linux find serial number, make, model for ethernet cards
Hi Team,
I would like to know if there is any command where I can get model number and serial number for my ethernet card. My server is at remote location and has Cent OS 5.3 installed. Let me know if you require any other info. Note: This is my first post and apologize if I have put this thread in wrong place. Regards, Leo.

I'm not sure about the serial number but you can run the following to get the model number. Replace eth0 with your interface name. Alternatively you can run 'ethtool -i eth0' to find the driver being used for that interface.
dmesg | grep eth0 [ 0.442982] eth0: RealTek RTL8139 at 0xd000, 00:0e:2e:e8:e4:82, IRQ 19 [ 0.443041] eth0: Identified 8139 chip type 'RTL-8100B/8139D' [ 7.429254] eth0: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex, lpa 0x43E1 [ 17.882018] eth0: no IPv6 routers present

Model number can be found using lspci but serial number is not possible, AFAIK:
Code:
lspci | grep -i eth Code:
04:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82573E Gigabit Ethernet Controller (Copper) (rev 03) 05:02.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88w8335 [Libertas] 802.11b/g Wireless (rev 03)

Another possibility

dmidecode --type 2,12 | grep -i serial

Hi All,
Thanks for suggestions. Neither worked to get desired output. lspci just gives you type of card installed on server. nixcraft this is output for the command which you suggested - # /usr/sbin/dmidecode --type 2,12 # dmidecode 2.7 SMBIOS 2.5 present.
