AWS AWSEC2: Update wording for serial console disable method

Service: AWSEC2 · 2026-08-16 · Documentation low

File: AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/al2023-isolated-compute-recipe.md

Summary

Changed 'via' to 'through' in the description of how serial console is disabled.

Security assessment

Minor wording change without security implications; clarifies disabling mechanism but doesn't alter security posture.

Evidence

-Serial Console | Disables serial console. Ensures that console access is unavailable for running instances and removes the operators' ability to login to the serial console. | Disabled via kernel command line parameter
