3324 Setup
I'm pretty new to using the Powerconnect switches. I just got a 3324, and when I went to setup the static IP addresss, the machine plugged into port 1 lost it's connection even though port status says it's connected and the port is up. I also can't ping the static IP and I can't connect via the web interface. I'd like to know the procedure for setting up the static IP. The documentation is sketchy at best. Maybe I did it wrong. Thanks

More than likely, you assigned your IP address to a specific port, not the VLAN. The 33xx series switches are Layer-2 only, with some Layer-3 awareness. They are not Layer-3 switches, and therefore the IP address is for management access only.
In order to properly configure the switch, you will need to do the following: (NOTE: You'll want to do this from the serial console)
console# config
console(config)# interface ethernet 1/ex (x=port to which you currently have an IP address)
console(config-if)# no ip address
console(config-if)# exit
To set the IP address on the VLAN:
console(config)# interface vlan 1
console(config-if)# ip address
console(config-if)# exit
console(config)# ip default-gateway
console(config)# exit
console# copy running-config startup-config
That should take care of the issue.
