Abstract
A method, system and computer program product for a VPN for containers and VMs implemented on different network node. A number of network hardware nodes have containers and VMs running on them. The containers and VMs are aggregated into VPNs assembled across the hardware nodes. Each hardware node has a network edge programmable switch configured to route packets to containers and VMs only inside a particular VPN. The switch detects a number of the VPN inside the packet header, replaces this number by a standard broadcast header number and multi-casts the packet to the containers and the VMs inside the VPN.
