When console redirection is enabled, this displays the IRQ assigned
per the address chosen in the COM Port Address field.
When console redirection is enabled, use the baud rate specified.
When the Emergency Management Port (EMP) shares the COM
port as console redirection, the baud rate must be set to 19.2k to
match EMP baud rate, unless the autobaud feature is used.
