+Guest console connection is supported through the <code>nmdm</code> device. It could be enabled by adding
+the following to the domain XML (<span class="since">Since 1.2.4</span>):

+of a guest.</p>
+
+<p><b>NB:</b> Some versions of bhyve have a bug that prevents guests from booting
+until the console is opened by a client. This bug was fixed in FreeBSD
+<a href="http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/262884">r262884</a>. If
+an older version is used, one either has to open a console manually with <code>virsh console</code>
