Yes.

Yes. We added a line or two at start up with the product name,
model number, etc. We also added probably a dozen or so
commands that can be used to configure and test portions of the
product.
In addition to that, we added support for two additional
network protocol that can be used to administer the product in
place of the RedBoot command-line stuff.
