IP address after a factory reset
From firmware 2.22 onwards, the NETA-21 shows the following dialog box when you want
to reboot the NETA-21:
If you select Store Ethernet IP address settings to keep_ip.mod file on memory card,
the NETA-21 tries to keep any previously defined fixed IP address configuration over a
reset. The current network interface configurations are saved to a file on the SD memory
card. The freshly initiated (factory resetted) firmware should be able to read the previous
network interface configurations and take those into use. The keep_ip.mod and any
existing restore.log or restore.n21 files should be removed from the SD memory card root
folder after a factory reset to optimize the boot-up mode and to enable similar functionality
in future.
Packages
The Packages tab enables to install and uninstall packages from the NETA-21. All core
packages are filtered from the list so that you cannot uninstall any vital packages from the
NETA-21.
You must have a Tool admin role (administrator) to access this view. This tab can only be
used to install signed packages with an IPS file extension.
The Packages tab contains the following components:
• Refresh button refreshes the package list.
• Install button opens a file selector for an IPS package. After a file has been selected,
the file is sent to the NETA-21 and installed. IPS packages are signed extra software
packages provided by ABB.
• Uninstall button is enabled only if a package has been selected from the package list.
When you click the button, you are asked to confirm the uninstallation before the
NETA-21 starts uninstalling the package.
• Package list shows all installed packages in the NETA-21 excluding all packages that
are necessary to the functioning. The package list contains the following columns:
Name, Version and Installed.
