I used a system information utility to take the model number of a system and also the motherboard

DMI System Manufacturer     LENOVO
DMI System Product          2306CTO
DMI System Version          ThinkPad X230
DMI Motherboard Product     2306CTO

Is there a way to get model number, in this case 2306CTO , in Linux?
