Hey Harry, This is unfortunate news, considering JNPR is shipping now platform with true lights-out OOB, port which does not rely on router control-plane CPU and Memory, debugger-on-break was only reasonable abstraction of OOB. On-band RS232 depending on main OS running is far less than ideal. I hope there are plans to introduce lights out port in future.
Anyhow, not shooting the messenger, thank you for the information.
