Support for running Virtual Machines

Hello,

as i understand its currently not possible to run virtual machines via KVM / Virtualbox /...
As the NAS models have enough power and RAM it would be really helpfull to have this possibililty to add further functionality to the NAS.

I know i can use Docker to run containers but for different reasons its not possible everytime to use this alternative. Sometimes its just neccessary to start a full blown VM.

Is this feature available with latest updates (and only webpage not updated)?
Or are there plans to support this in upcoming releases?
If this feature is planned - a possiblilty to import new vms (and export) via OVA packages will be really helpfull to not have to start from scratch with every vm.

I've a new F5-422 where i really like to see this feature.

Thanks,
Stefan Seide

Hi, no new features will be added in TOS 4.1. Not so sure whether it will be added in TOS 4.2.
