Issue/Introduction

How to confirm your SSP-S410 is a B or non-B model by using commands or log entries.

Resolution

Using the command 'show hardware-configuration' you can tell by interface vendor provided.

• B-models will have the interface vendor Broadcom
• Non-B models, the interface vendor will not be Broadcom

Outside of this minor difference, everything else between the two models is identical.
