system nvData reset option.

■You must adjust the baud rate setting of your terminal or terminal emulator’s terminal interface processor (tip) to match your system serial port’s speed before you can reestablish communication using the terminal port.

■You can use this command through the terminal serial port or through a Telnet session. However, if you change the terminal speed while you are in a Telnet session, you must reboot the system for the change to take effect.
