hello everyone im have a bit of an issue with this 8 port fibre channel san switch. I connect a network cable between the switch and a dl360 and connot telnet to the default address...It is possible that someone has changed the address and did not write it down.....so i try to connect a serial connection but nothing ever happenes.... all of the status LED are amber cept the network connection led is green the power led is green....if i insert a gbic into one of the ports and connect it to something else the status like stays amber.....so there is definitely something fishy going on here.......is there anyone that can help really what i want to do is be able to telnet or connect to the serial port to change the IP.... also is there some kind of hard switch or button somewhere that i can press.....

thanks in advance
