How to program Ethernet MAC during Manufacturing

We're running IMX8mini with Yoct Linux.

By default, there's no MAC Address for ethernet, so uboot would generate a random UUID-like MAC ID for this.

When we start formal manufacture in the factory, we will start program the MAC ID from a list pool into the target device. How could we do this? Is there any factory tools on NXP IMX8? And is there any document about this?

Hello Songxiang,

    Sorry, we do not provide MAC address production tools!

    Bascially, you should buy MAC address from IEEE organization at first. Then make a solution for programing MAC address to board. For the operation of MAC address, you can do like this:
1. Setting it to u-boot environment.
2. Save it in eFUSE
3. Setting it in linux appliation.
