## AI overview

A tutorial explains how to enable nested virtualization on a Proxmox host so virtual machines can run virtualization with hardware acceleration. It covers checking and enabling the setting for Intel and AMD CPUs, rebooting the host, verifying the setting, and configuring the guest VM processor appropriately.

What Is Nested Virtualization? Nested Virtualization is a feature that allows you to run a virtual machine within a virtual machine while still using hardware acceleration from the host machine.Put simply, it allows you to run a vm inside of a vm. Enabling Nested Virtualization In Proxmox Everything we do will be done on the host system running Proxmox.Once enabled, the guest can take advant...
