Nesting means that when a trigger is fired, it will also cause another trigger to be fired.

One Trigger execution can trigger even on another table or same table. This trigger is called NESTED TRIGGER or RECURSIVE TRIGGER.

SQL Server supports the nesting of triggers up to a maximum of 32 levels.

Recursive triggers When a trigger fires and performs a statement that will cause the same trigger to fire, recursion will occur.

Following script will stop executing all the nested triggers.
SP_CONFIGURE 'nested_triggers',0
GO
RECONFIGURE
GO

There is also alternate way to stop Trigger Recursion

ALTER DATABASE databasename
SET RECURSIVE_TRIGGERS ON | OFF
