== Summary ==
In this chapter we have briefly explained the concept of virtualization before looking in particular at Xen in terms of both full and para-virtualization and the system requirements of each method.

In the next chapter will look at [[Using Xen Full Virtualization to Run Windows on RHEL 5]].
