Can't remotely access the switch

Hi we recently purchased the CBS250 switch.  From what I understand it has a web GUI and a CLI.  I used a console cable to configure the switch through CLI.  I put a basic config in like so:

 

vlan 5

name Voice

int vlan 5

ip address 192.168.120.3 255.255.255.0

 

Then I put all the ports 

switchport trunk native vlan 5

 

Now I can't access the switch through the GUI, does the management IP need to be in VLAN 1 for this switch?

 

Thanks for the help.

1. Have you statically assigned your computer with an address within 192.168.120.4-192.168.120.254?

2. Verify that the switch interface that your computer is connected to is indeed a trunk port with a native VLAN of 5

3. Verify that the VLAN interface 5 is active (should not show "shutdown" in the running config under "interface vlan 5")

4. Are you web browsing to http://192.168.120.3

@TJ-20933766  Thanks for the prompt reply.  

1.  There is a DHCP server within the subnet so there's no need.

2.  I have verified that.

3.  It is not shutdown, I ran a no shut command just in case.

4. Yes I tried it that way as well.

 

Let me say this when I remove the IP address from VLAN 5's interface and set my laptop's IP to something like 192.168.1.100, I'm able to access the GUI at 192.168.1.254.  It's almost as if setting a static IP on VLAN 5 is causing there to be some sort of issue.

Would you mind uploading a copy of the "show run" from the switch after you've added the VLAN 5 configs that are causing you issues?
