Deleted browsing history, cookies, tried different browsers, and rebooted the SCI, but licenses and serial number are still missing.

Resolution

When not seeing the serial number or Licenses under the License page, there is a possibility that port 53000 TCP+UDP is blocked by the Firewall. One way to verify whether the port is opened or not is to go to the following URL with the correct SCI address:
https://[SCI-IP address]:53000/api/v1/nodes?state=true.

If the port is not allowed, there would be an exception such as "ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT".

After allowing Port 53000 on the firewall, validate this URL again:
https://[SCI-IP address]:53000/api/v1/nodes?state=true
[{"id":"master-41c217b","node_type":"master","node_ip":"10.10.10.12","node_token":"441234526","state":"ok"}]

If the results are like above, the Serial number would be displayed properly in the WebUI:
