You can use the vconsole utility from the host. It's documented here:

 

https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/15000/300/sol15372.html

 

Basically you give it the name of the guest (Not the hostname of the guest) like so:

 

vconsole ltm1guest 1

 

You will want to read the solution article as it details details such as how to disconnect from the console when you are done.
