"A BIG-IP Virtual Edition (VE) system does not have a similar serial number format to the previously mentioned hardware platforms.

You must use the last seven digits of the BIG-IP VE registration key.
Note: For information about finding the registration key of your BIG-IP virtual edition (VE) system, refer to K54213125: Finding the registration key of your BIG-IP virtual edition (VE) system"
