how to create virtual terminals

Hello All!

I want to know how to create virtual terminals in aix. As in Linux, simply by using Ctl-Alt-F1-F6 keys, i can switch to any of the 6 corresponding virtual terminals. But i dont know how to do that in AIX. Also if I access an AIX server through remote desktop, will the method to create virtual terminals change? If so, what it will be? I have CDE as the environment.

Thanks and regards,

Anubhuti

NAME
securetty - file which lists terminals from which root can log in DESCRIPTION
The file /etc/securetty contains the names of terminals (one per line, without leading /dev/) which are considered secure for the transmis- sion of certain authentication tokens. It is used by (some versions of) login(1) to restrict the terminals on which root is allowed to login. See login.defs(5) if you use the shadow suite. On PAM enabled systems, it is used for the same purpose by pam_securetty(8) to restrict the terminals on which empty passwords are accepted. FILES
