Label information
The first step is to get the serial numbers of the Cloud equipment you want to add to your cloud account. The serial number can be found on the box of the Cloud AP (ECW) or Cloud switch (ECS). An example of each is below:
Fig 1: ECW Serial number on box
- 1.Model number of ECW AP
2. Serial Number of ECW AP (This string of information that is added in the Cloud GUI)
3. Hardware version on ECW AP
The serial number for an ECW AP can also be found on the sticker on the back on the unit (check where you plug in the Ethernet cords into the ECW AP)
Fig 2: Back of AP
Below is an example of the sticker on the back on an ECW220 AP.

As you can see the sticker on the back of the AP has the MAC address of the AP as well. It has the following items:
1.Model of AP
2.Serial number of ECW AP (This string of information that is added in the Cloud GUI)
You can also find the serial number of the ECW AP In the GUI of the ECW AP, when you login into the unit.
Highlighted below is the information needed to add the AP to the Cloud GUI, if the information is obtained via login to the ECW AP locally in the web GUI.
