Fulfill Single and Multiple PAKs and Tokens

In addition to being able to register single PAKs, you now have the capability to register multiple PAKs within a single registration. Fulfilling a PAK is the same as registering a PAK. Your PAK can be found on a Cisco Claim Certificate or in the PAK email.

·         Example 1: 1075JEF78FE

·         Example 2: UNTY-2X-SJ-XXXXXX

Your Token will be emailed as a result of a secure rehost transaction for DCM products.
