What does L/N stand for?

 

This is on a product label for an IoT PC and it has some number with a barcode next to it. It somehow in line with P/N for part/product number and S/N for serial number.

For what I've been able to figure out it has something to do with the manufacturing  batch or shipment since the number is the same for the units that arrived around the same time.

Lot number. It's used to identify batch products. So if they identified that a machine was improperly manufacturing items over a certain period of time, they would know what lot it came from. Lot numbers are used to identify the time and place of manufacture.
