 # Enable nested virtualization on a template virtual machine in Azure Lab Services
-This article covers how to set up nested virtualization on a template virtual machine in Azure Lab Services. Nested virtualization is used in Azure Lab Services when each student in a class requires multiple machines.
- 
+
+Currently, Azure Lab Services enables you to set up one template virtual machine in a lab and make a single copy available to each of your users. If you are a professor teaching networking, security, or IT classes, you may need to provide each of your students with an environment in which multiple virtual machines can talk to each other over a network.
+
+Nested virtualization enables you to create a multi-VM environment inside a lab’s template virtual machine. Publishing the template will provide each user in the lab with a virtual machine set up with multiple VMs within it.  This article covers how to set up nested virtualization on a template machine in Azure Lab Services.
+
+## What is nested virtualization?
+
+Nested virtualization enables you to create virtual machines within a virtual machine. Nested virtualization is done through Hyper-V, and is only available on Windows VMs.
+
+For more information about nested virtualization, see the following articles:
+
+- [Nested Virtualization in Azure](https://azure.microsoft.com/blog/nested-virtualization-in-azure/)
+- [How to enable nested virtualization in an Azure VM](../../virtual-machines/windows/nested-virtualization.md)
+
 ## Considerations
+
 Before setting up a lab with nested virtualization, here are a few things to take into consideration.
 
-- When creating a new lab, select **Medium (Nested Virtualization)** or **Large** sizes for the virtual machine size. These virtual machine sizes support nested virtualization. 
+- When creating a new lab, select **Medium (Nested virtualization)** or **Large (Nested virtualization)** sizes for the virtual machine size. These virtual machine sizes support nested virtualization.
 - Choose a size that will provide good performance for both the host and client virtual machines.  Remember, when using virtualization, the size you choose must be adequate for not just one machine, but the host as well as any client machines that must be run concurrently.
 - Client virtual machines will not have access to Azure resources, such as DNS servers on the Azure virtual network.
-- Host virtual machine requires setup to allow for the client machine to have internet connectivity. 
+- Host virtual machine requires setup to allow for the client machine to have internet connectivity.
 - Client virtual machines are licensed as independent machines. See [Microsoft Licensing](https://www.microsoft.com/licensing/default) for information about licensing for Microsoft operation systems and products. Check licensing agreements for any other software being used before setting up the template machine.
 
 ## Enable nested virtualization on a template VM
-The steps in this section focus on setting up nested virtualization for Windows Server 2016 or Windows Server 2019. You will use a script to set up template machine with Hyper-V. For an automated solution, see scripts at [Lab Services Hyper-V Scripts](https://github.com/Azure/azure-devtestlab/tree/master/samples/ClassroomLabs/Scripts/HyperV). The following steps will walk you through how to use the script.
 
-1. If you're using Internet Explorer, you may have to add `https://github.com` to the trusted sites list. 
+This article assumes that you have created a lab account and lab.  For more information about creating a new lab account, see [tutorial to set up a Lab Account](tutorial-setup-lab-account.md). For more information how to create  lab, see [set up a classroom lab tutorial](tutorial-setup-classroom-lab.md).
+
+>[!IMPORTANT]
+>Select **Large (nested virtualization)** or **Medium (nested virtualization)** for the virtual machine size when creating the lab.  Nested virtualization will not work otherwise.

 1. Launch **PowerShell** in **Administrator** mode.
 1. In the PowerShell window, navigate to the folder with the downloaded script. If you're navigating from the top folder of the repository files, the script is located at `azure-devtestlab\samples\ClassroomLabs\Scripts\HyperV\`.
 1. You may have to change the execution policy to successfully run the script. Run the following command:
-    
+
     ```powershell
-    Set-ExecutionPolicy bypass -force 
+    Set-ExecutionPolicy bypass -force
     ```

 1. Run the script:
-    
+
     ```powershell
     .\SetupForNestedVirtualization.ps1
     ```
 
     > [!NOTE]
     > The script may require the machine to be restarted. Follow instructions from the script and re-run the script until **Script completed** is seen in the output.

 ## Conclusion
-Now your template machine is ready to create Hyper-V virtual machines. See [Create a Virtual Machine in Hyper-V](/windows-server/virtualization/hyper-v/get-started/create-a-virtual-machine-in-hyper-v) for instructions on how to create Hyper-V virtual machines. Also, see [Microsoft Evaluation Center](https://www.microsoft.com/evalcenter/) to check out available operating systems and software.
