CPU console port, which is an RS-232 port that supports an RJ-45 connector. At boot-up, the
controller configures the RS-232 port as a console port with default settings of 9600, N, 8, 1. The
boot-loader supports baud rates of 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, and 115200. A
default baud-rate recovery mechanism is not available; however, the bootloader ensures that the
stored baud rate setting matches one of the allowed values before setting the baud rate. If a
nonstandard value is detected, the baud rate will default to 9600.

Mini-B USB console port that can be used to perform software updates in addition to the already
available transfer modes, namely HTTP, TFTP, FTP, and SFTP.
If the Mini-B USB console port is used, the CPU console port that supports RJ-45 connector
is ignored. That is, only one of the two ports are ever active.
If you connect to both Mini-B USB port and the CPU console port, then the CPU console
port takes precedence.
