Remote Console Hot Keys

The Remote Console hot keys feature enables you to define up to six multiple key combinations to be assigned to each hot key. When a hot key is pressed in the Remote Console, on client systems, the defined key combination (all keys pressed at the same time) will be transmitted in place of the hot key to the remote host server.
