11.15. Do I have to type in the bps rate every time I do that?

Put in an entry for tip1200 or cu1200, but go ahead and use whatever bps rate is appropriate with the br capability. tip thinks a good default is 1200 bps which is why it looks for a ``tip1200'' entry. You don't have to use 1200 bps, though.
