Virtual Console
Real consoles can be assigned to virtual consoles in this menu.
This simplifies the process of setting and changing access permissions, by changing the permissions of the
virtual console and then applying them to all real consoles assigned to the virtual console.
Virtual consoles can be switched in exactly the same way as real consoles. If a virtual console is switched
to a CPU, all real consoles assigned to the virtual console will receive the video signal. The last real
console that is assigned to a virtual console will also have keyboard and mouse control.
This can be done through the OSD or the Java Tool.
Assignment through the OSD
