  <title>Multiple Remote Monitors</title>
  
  <body>
    <p>To access two or more remote VM displays you have to enable the VRDP multiconnection mode. See <xref
        href="vrde-multiconnection.dita#vrde-multiconnection"/>. </p>
    <p>The RDP client can select the virtual monitor number to connect to using the <codeph>domain</codeph> login
      parameter (<codeph>-d</codeph>). If the parameter ends with <codeph>@</codeph> followed by a number, <ph
        conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/product-name"/> interprets this number as the screen index. The primary guest
      screen is selected with <codeph>@1</codeph>, the first secondary screen is <codeph>@2</codeph>, and so on. </p>
    <p>The Microsoft RDP 6 client does not let you specify a separate domain name. Instead, enter
          <codeph><varname>domain</varname>\<varname>username</varname></codeph> in the <b outputclass="bold"
        >Username</b> field. For example, <codeph>@2\<varname>name</varname>
      </codeph>. <varname>name</varname> must be supplied, and must be the name used to log in if the VRDP server is set
      up to require credentials. If it is not, you may use any text as the username. </p>
