=== Hardware Requirements for Xen(TM) Dom0
To run the Xen(TM) hypervisor on a host, certain hardware functionality is required.
-Hardware virtualized domains require Extended Page Table (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_Page_Table[EPT]) and Input/Output Memory Management Unit (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_IOMMU-supporting_hardware[IOMMU]) support in the host processor.
+Running FreeBSD as a Xen host (Dom0) require Intel Extended Page Tables (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_Page_Table[EPT]) or AMD Nested Page Tables (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapid_Virtualization_Indexing[NPT]) and Input/Output Memory Management Unit (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_IOMMU-supporting_hardware[IOMMU]) support in the host processor.
[NOTE]
====
-In order to run a FreeBSD Xen(TM) Dom0 the box must be booted using legacy boot (BIOS).
+In order to run a FreeBSD 13 Xen(TM) Dom0 the box must be booted using legacy boot (BIOS).
+FreeBSD 14 and newer supports booting as a Xen(TM) Dom0 in both BIOS and UEFI modes.
