How do I test my switch?

Hi all, I'm a little new to networking switches but was given a PowerConnect 5448 and I'm having trouble accessing the Web GUI.  Here's what I did so far:

I realize the switch doesn't have DHCP so I can't directly plug my laptop into it.  So, I plugged the switch into a spare router which my laptop was plugged into.  I ran an iplookup hoping to find the PowerConnect IP address to log into, but it wasn't showing up at all.  This is where I wasn't sure what to do next...

Should I find a serial cable and access it that way or do some kind of hard reset?  Any advice would be appreciated!  Thanks :)
