possible to retrieve SN of AP via PS?

[1etherer]

Ive been trying to find out if its possible to use powershell or even CMD, to retrieve the Serial number of a AP you are connected to within your network with the AP IP address?

Of course its on the AP label, but just wanted to know if I could pull it off remotely?

Does it have to be powershell/cmd? Only thing I can think of is if you have telnet enabled, and the AP is configured to allow telnet access - from there you should be able to pull the config along with the serial number, but the syntax will depend on the vendor. It's not something that the AP would normally advertise, so I don't think that there's any way to do it without gaining privileged access to the AP.
