Yes, you need to connect to the switch the first time with a console
cable ... configure its ip address, give it a user name/password. Then
you can connect to it via a web browser.<br>
This initial setup is documented in the the documentation booklet you
got with the switch.<br>

<pre wrap="">Does the Dell Switch have a "console" port in the back? My Cisco switches do
and I can use a special serial cable to connect to it via hyperterminal

adjusting the factory default IP to a new IP and see if that makes a
difference.
Any other reason it could cause a whole switch to reboot?

The only hits are on the Dell forums in regards to failed TFTP uploads
to the switch itself.
Does the IP of the switch conflict with the IP of the terminal?
