Description When the iDRAC6 cfgSerialConsoleEnable property is set to 0 
(disabled), the iDRAC6 serial port becomes the IPMI serial port. This 
property determines the IPMI defined mode of the serial port. 
In Basic mode, the port uses binary data with the intent of 
communicating with an application program on the serial client. In 
Terminal mode, the port assumes that a dumb ASCII terminal is 
connected and allows very simple commands to be entered.
