I can't answer for the rest of the devices here, and I believe the 5224 is fairly old, but this info may help. First, make sure you are setting your baud connection at 9600 for your console connection and then connect with Hyperterminal or other terminal software. After connecting via the console connection you can then configure an IP address on the switch by executing either of the following depending on the image you are running:  1) config  ip address 192.168.0.2 255.255.255.0  end or  2) config int vlan 1 ip address 192.168.0.2 255.255.255.0 end And then add a username and password as below: config username xxxxxx password xxxxxx Now connect your PC to the switch via an ethernet cable and set you LAN connection on the PC to be in the same subnet: 192.168.0.3 mask = 255.255.255.0. Now you can open up a web browser and enter in the IP address 192.168.0.2 and you can communicate with the switch via the device GUI. I hope this helps........
