i want do understand what the difference between the images and when i need to use the file name that include the -serial.qcow2 on the image name

for example:

csr1000v-universalk9.16.08.01a.qcow2

vs

csr1000v-universalk9.16.08.01a-serial.qcow2

i see same images on other previews version

i didn't find any document that explain the difference and when to use the *-serial.qcow2

Found it - check

You need the serial image if you want a serial connection for the OpenStack dashboard
