A method and device for interworking between a physical network and a virtual network is provided. The implementations may include creating a network connection container. The network connection container may include a first virtual LAN interface configured to connect to a physical network, a second virtual LAN interface configured to connect to a virtual network, and a virtual extensible LAN interface configured to connect the first virtual LAN interface and the second virtual LAN interface. The implementations may further include configuring corresponding routing information for the network connection container and transmitting packets between the physical network and the virtual network via the network connection container based on the routing information. Thus, the network connection container may be added to various network interfaces to achieve physical network and virtual network interworking.
