+Redirected devices
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+USB device redirection through a character device is supported :since:`since
+after 0.9.5 (KVM only)` :
+
+::

+   ...
+   <devices>
+     <redirdev bus='usb' type='tcp'>
+       <source mode='connect' host='localhost' service='4000'/>
+       <boot order='1'/>
+     </redirdev>
+     <redirfilter>
+       <usbdev class='0x08' vendor='0x1234' product='0xbeef' version='2.56' allow='yes'/>
+       <usbdev allow='no'/>
+     </redirfilter>
+   </devices>
+   ...
+
+``redirdev``
+   The ``redirdev`` element is the main container for describing redirected
+   devices. ``bus`` must be "usb" for a USB device. An additional attribute
+   ``type`` is required, matching one of the supported `serial
+   device <#elementsConsole>`__ types, to describe the host side of the tunnel;
+   ``type='tcp'`` or ``type='spicevmc'`` (which uses the usbredir channel of a
+   `SPICE graphics device <#elementsGraphics>`__) are typical. The redirdev
+   element has an optional sub-element ``<address>`` which can tie the device to
+   a particular controller. Further sub-elements, such as ``<source>``, may be
+   required according to the given type, although a ``<target>`` sub-element is
+   not required (since the consumer of the character device is the hypervisor
+   itself, rather than a device visible in the guest).
+``boot``
+   Specifies that the device is bootable. The ``order`` attribute determines the
+   order in which devices will be tried during boot sequence. The per-device
+   ``boot`` elements cannot be used together with general boot elements in `BIOS
+   bootloader <#elementsOSBIOS>`__ section. ( :since:`Since 1.0.1` )
+``redirfilter``
+   The\ ``redirfilter``\ element is used for creating the filter rule to filter
+   out certain devices from redirection. It uses sub-element ``<usbdev>`` to
+   define each filter rule. ``class`` attribute is the USB Class code, for
+   example, 0x08 represents mass storage devices. The USB device can be
+   addressed by vendor / product id using the ``vendor`` and ``product``
+   attributes. ``version`` is the device revision from the bcdDevice field (not
+   the version of the USB protocol). These four attributes are optional and
+   ``-1`` can be used to allow any value for them. ``allow`` attribute is
+   mandatory, 'yes' means allow, 'no' for deny.
