Create a nested virtual machine in a Microsoft Azure Linux VM

- Open Source Networking

Microsoft Azure unofficially supports nested virtualization using KVM on Linux virtual machines, which makes it possible to build network emulation scenarios in the cloud using the same technologies you would use if you were using your own PC or a local server. In this post, I will show you how to set up a Linux […]

Network Labs Using Nested Virtualization in the Cloud

- Network Simulation

Many open-source network simulation and emulation tools use full virtualization technologies like VMware, QEMU/KVM, or VirtualBox. These technologies require hardware support for virtualization such as Intel’s VT-x and AMD’s AMD-V. To gain direct access to this hardware support, researchers usually run network emulation test beds on their own PCs or servers but could not take
