Out-of-Band Mgmt Port
The default setting is: [COM1].

[VT-UTF8] is the preferred terminal type for out-of-band management. The next
best choice is [VT100+] and them [VT100]. See above, in Console Redirection
Settings page, for more help with Terminal Type/Emulation.
Bits per second
Use this item to select serial port transmission speed. The speed must be
matched on the other side. Long or noisy lines may require lower speeds.
The optional settings are: [9600]; [19200]; [57600]; [115200].
Flow Control
Flow control can prevent data loss from buffer overflow. When sending data, if
the receiving buffers are full, a
“stop” signal can be sent to stop the data flow.
Once the buffers are empty, a
“start” signal can be sent to re-start the flow.
Hardware flow control uses two wires to send start/stop signals.
The optional settings are: [None]; [Hardware RTS/CTS]; [Software Xon/Xoff].
Data Bits
The default setting is: [8].
