Thanks Chris, there is no console access to these boxes, another task added to my list to get them in order.

 

 

Gotcha...out-of-band is very nice to have for tasks such as this...otherwise you're relegated to pressing buttons on the box. I've changed mgmt IP even through the GUI several times and haven't had problems...I usually have a ping going to the new IP just so I can watch for issues. If I recall, the config utility is smart enough to take you to the new IP when changing it through the GUI.
