The XMC4000 MCU has got the SCU_IDCHIP for the purposes to allow software to identify the marking such as EES-AA, ES-AB etc. However the value of this ID is not suitable for authentication purposes as most of them are identical from the same batch.

Therefore a programmable ethernet MAC address and Ethernet IP + BMI (Boot mode index) will be more suitable for this use case.
