Hello everyone,
I was mandated to resell a bunch of networking equipment used by an IT company. Among the equipment, I found license enveloppes. Most of them are still sealed. I assume they have the license info + CD. In 2 open enveloppes, I found a sealed CD and a piece of paper, but it doesn't seem to give any specific license number.
Can any of them still be used or sold separately?
Here is a sample of what I have:

Hello @Daniel Ernwein
Sealed envelopes might still have value if the PAK has not been registered and the product is still supported...
Open envelopes or anything without a visible PAK code are useless for re sale.
Start by checking via a partner to see if those PAK can still be activated...

Yep ! If it’s unregistered and still valid, it can be used or transfered; if expired or already registered..., it’s not usable.
Again, see with your partner for exact detailed procedure.

Got it! I appreciate the answer. In that case, I assume that I would need to open a sealed envelope to find the PAK code and see with Cisco if it can still be activated?
