virtual terminal

A virtual terminal is a software interface that allows a computer or device to connect to another system or network as if it were a physical terminal, like a traditional keyboard and screen. It enables users to access and manage remote servers or systems without needing dedicated hardware. Essentially, it creates a virtual environment where commands can be entered, and responses received, providing control and communication capabilities over a network. Virtual terminals are common in IT for system administration, troubleshooting, and managing multiple systems efficiently.
