Does FreeNAS support NFSv4.1 for mounting a DataStore on vSphere 6.7?

Hi, apologies if this is a silly question, I read in the documentation and settings that "NFSv4" was a supported option, but I wanted to verify whether v4.1 specifically is supported as v4.1 is the option within VMware vSphere.

If NFSv4.1 is indeed supported, would someone please explain how to configure FreeNAS to allow an NFS v4.1 share to be mounted as a DataStore? I initially tried enabling Kerberos authentication and joining both the FreeNAS server and ESXi hosts to Active Directory, but I kept seeing errors in the host log about SPN mappings. I then tried using SYS authentication instead of Kerberos, I was able to mount the NFS share as a DataStore using the NFSv4.1 protocol, however attempting to write any files or folders to the DataStore failed.
