Hello,
you cannot access the switch remotely when there is no management IP address on the switch that is reachable through the network. Physically consoling into the switch is your only option.

consoling into the switch
then do this
en
conf t
int vlan 1
ip add ........ (as you need)(for example 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0)
no sh
exit
line vty 0 4
password cisco
login
exit
enable secret cisco
ctrl+z
copy run start
and then you can login to switch by telnet to ip address of vlan 1.

Thanks.
