The Viewport Display rollout is part of the Generic material's parameters.
Viewport Display
Viewport Display – Enables connection/binding between V-Ray and the corresponding base application material.
Color – Enables color binding. Changing the V-Ray material color changes the corresponding base application material color and vice versa.
Opacity – Enables Opacity/Transparency binding. When enabled, changing the V-Ray material refraction changes the corresponding base application material opacity/transparency.
Texture Mode – Enables texture binding. Changing the V-Ray material texture changes the corresponding base application material texture and vice versa. Disabling this parameter allows for base app material changes without affecting the V-Ray material.
Auto – Binds the diffuse texture to the base app material.
Custom – A custom texture slot is bound to the base app material.
Viewport Texture – The selected texture is bound to the base app material. Keeping this slot empty in Custom mode shows a Helper Texture in the viewport.

Override Control
Can be Overridden – When enabled, the material can be overridden by the Material Override option in the Settings.
