The hardware driver does not supply default values it supplies actual values. We are not restricting the driver by setting a default but keeping the driver from breaking the system in case the programmer forgets to set a value. For instance the iso88025_ifattach will set baudrate to 4000000 (or 16000000) only if the current baudrate is 0.
