System i5 first boot

I am still trying to get my brand new System i5 to boot for the first time.
Is there a way for me to find what IP address it has assigned itself?
Through the random pushing of buttons on the control panel display I found
it once, but that was a couple of boot attempts ago and I am trying to
figure out how to get back into there.
 
p.s. Initial setup of a System i5 is turning out to be a real drag.  Granted
I am a programmer trying to do it and not a sysadmin, but if IBM is trying
to get new sales out there to non-IBM shops then they are currently failing
on my scale of ease-of-use.
 
Thanks,
Aaron Bartell
