display.

displays the screen image and cursor movements of the managed system.

to the managed system displays only the screen image of the managed system.
The screen image that is displayed on the management console does not change
when the screen image changes on the managed system.

- Displays the Remote Control Console List window that shows the current
users who are accessing the managed system by remote control. It also lists
their remote-control session status.

remote-control states. The following refresh rates are available:
