In that case a baud rate of 57,600 will cause SIO to program the UART
with a "2" which will actually select 230,400.

You may need to use Minicom or some other terminal program to set up
your ISDN adapter at 230,400 first, though.  My 3com cannot be
autobauded to 230,400.  It has to be initialized at 115,200 or below
and then set to 230,400 with an AT command.  Then after it's set, you
can't talk to it again until you change your UART baud to 230,400.

Since you seem to be running with a default 4x clock, the next lower
standard speed in the 4x table is 38,400 which is programmed with a
value of "12" in the UART register.  If you set up Minicom at what
appears to be 9600, you will really be talking to the ISDN device at
38,400.  Then you should be able to use the AT command which sets the
ISDN adapter to 230,400 and fire up SIO with a speed of 57,600 which
will really be 230,400.

It all makes sense when you see the baud rate table for 4x vs. 1x.
