ttyv for local only?

I get this in my security postings.

Jun [undisclosed time] [undiscl.] login: 2 LOGIN FAILURES ON ttyv2
Jun [undisclosed time] [undiscl.] login: 2 LOGIN FAILURES ON ttyv2, qmaild

As it turns out, I'm not running qmail :)  And if I did, it would
definitely have a nologin shell.  But that's beside the point-

I have had a perception that ttyv was for local/console logins, and that
just "tty" was for remote logins.

Is my understanding wrong here?
