Yes it is expected since the keystroke goes through L1 first. You can use the '-e' switch of virsh to set the console escape character in one of the clients differently: $ virsh -e '^[' console 1 Connected to domain fedora32 Escape character is ^[ (Ctrl + [)

Hi, With virsh you can configure different escape character. It could look like this for example: On host you would run: virsh console L1_vm and in the L1 VM you would run this: virsh -e ^[ console L2_vm For more info check the virsh man page.

How to exit console in L2 vm?
Hi, I have a question about nested virtualization. The scenario is as below: 1. Prepare the nested environment, start L2 guest. 2. On the host, connect the L1 vm console, then on L1 guest, connect the L2 guest console: (host)# virsh console L1_vm Connected to domain L1_vm Escape character is ^] (Ctrl + ]) ... (L1 vm)# virsh console L2_vm Connected to domain L2_vm Escape character is ^] (Ctrl + ]) ... (L2 vm)# <=== press " ^] " to exit the console, it return to the **host** (host)# Is it expected that "^]" in L2 guest will exit thoroughly to the host, not the L1 guest?
