+ <listitem><para>Takes a positive integer. Configures how many
+ virtual terminals (VTs) to allocate by default that, when
+ switched to and are previously unused,
+ <literal>autovt</literal> services are automatically spawned
+ on. These services are instantiated from the template unit
+ <filename>autovt@.service</filename> for the respective VT TTY
+ name, for example, <filename>autovt@tty4.service</filename>.
+ By default, <filename>autovt@.service</filename> is linked to
+ <filename>getty@.service</filename>. In other words, login
+ prompts are started dynamically as the user switches to unused
+ virtual terminals. Hence, this parameter controls how many
+ login <literal>gettys</literal> are available on the VTs. If a
+ VT is already used by some other subsystem (for example, a
+ graphical login), this kind of activation will not be
+ attempted. Note that the VT configured in
+ <varname>ReserveVT=</varname> is always subject to this kind
+ of activation, even if it is not one of the VTs configured
+ with the <varname>NAutoVTs=</varname> directive. Defaults to
