Cannot access Dell PowerConnect 2724 switch

Question

Hi! I have bought some switches Dell PowerConnect 2724 and there is no way I can access the web interface. In the user guide they say I should push this small button in order to enable Managed Mode. This would allow me to access the switch web interface and manage it. But it does not work. I have enabled the Managed Mode but there is no way I can access this web interface using the default ip address of the switch. Any body can help? How could I access the web interface for this switch? Thank you!

I solved it. It was because the ip of the switch was like 192.168.2.1 and the type of ip I use inthe network id totaly different. So i had to change the ip for one computer and then I was able to connect to it. Thanks!

User name or Password is missing - Browser access problem - cannot enter password - cannot login

-Press reset button (managed mode front of unit) + power up the unit at the same time.

-The unit will factory reset 192.168.2.1 user = admin password=

-To access via browser: managed mode must be on (nb: unit will reboot if you press managed mode on) .

-If you cannot access the web interface ("User name or Password is missing") via the browser/workstation, try from your server

Best regards
