>Description:
              When changing /etc/ttys line to :
ttyd0   "/usr/libexec/getty 3wire.115200" dialup on secure

and changing a terminal Server's line to use 115200, there is no more communication and you cannot use the redirected console. If you leave the line above in /etc/ttys as shown and change back the term server back to 9600, console redirection works again.

The above situation was not this way in 5.4 et al.
>How-To-Repeat:
              Simply setup a redirected console and change the appropriate serial terminal line in /etc/ttys so that you have a line similar to:

 ttyd0   "/usr/libexec/getty 3wire.115200" dialup on secure
