 This article shows you how to set up a class that focuses on the forensics side of ethical hacking with Azure Lab Services. In an ethical hacking class, students can learn modern techniques for defending against vulnerabilities. Penetration testing, a practice that the ethical hacking community uses, occurs when someone attempts to gain access to the system or network to demonstrate vulnerabilities that a malicious attacker may exploit.
 
-Each student gets a Windows Server host virtual machine (VM) that has two nested virtual machines: one VM with [Metasploitable3](https://github.com/rapid7/metasploitable3) image and another VM with the [Kali Linux](https://www.kali.org/) image. You use the Metasploitable VM for exploiting purposes. The Kali VM provides access to the tools you need to execute forensic tasks.

 This article has two main sections. The first section covers how to create the lab. The second section covers how to create the template machine with nested virtualization enabled and with the tools and images needed. In this case, a Metasploitable image and a Kali Linux image on a machine that has Hyper-V enabled to host the images.

 2. Set up the [Kali](https://www.kali.org/) Linux image. Kali is a Linux distribution that includes tools for penetration testing and security auditing.
 
 3. Set up the Metasploitable image. For this example, you use the [Metasploitable3](https://github.com/rapid7/metasploitable3) image. This image is created to purposely have security vulnerabilities.
