What is the difference between 'USB Host device assignment'
from 'USB Redirected devices'?
In the former the USB device is detached from the host and directly
attached to the guest. The USB device must be connected to the host
running the guest. In USB redirection, the USB packets are packed into
TCP and send over network to (in general) different host which then
unpack the packets and replays the USB packets. This is used mainly by
SPICE where you can attach e.g. a flash disk even though the host
running the domain is far away from you.
