I'm trying to setup a powerconnect 2808 in managed mode. I pressed the managed mode button on the front and it switched over to managed mode. I connected to the default web interface at 192.168.2.1 and logged in with the default username and password. I then hit apply changes on the restore configuration page. The switch resets and I can never connect to it again. I can't ping the ip address, web interface and telnet are down. I've reset the device by holding the managed mode button for longer than 7 seconds and the switch resets. After it reboots I still can't connect to the switch. The only way I can get on the switch again is to put it back in unmanaged mode then back to managed. Then the cycle starts over again. I've tried to get into the CLI instead of the web interface and I just get the >. I type mcli and it asks for a password that I apparently don't know. I would like to get this switch setup in managed mode.
