Open virtualized multitenant network scheme servicing virtual machine and container based connectivity

A method comprising:

• configuring a northbound port of a virtual switch to connect to a respective network, wherein the northbound port is respectively associated with a virtual local area network (VLAN);
• configuring a southbound port of the virtual switch to connect to a network interface controller;
• attaching a virtual network interface controller (vNIC) of an isolated guest to a communication port on the virtual switch;
• and
• establishing, by the isolated guest, connection with the respective network based on a respective network name.

A non-transitory machine readable medium storing a program, which when executed by a processor, which causes a processor to:

• configure a northbound port of a virtual switch to connect a respective network, wherein the northbound port is respectively associated with a virtual local area network (VLAN);
• configure a southbound port of the virtual switch to connect to a network interface controller;
• attach a virtual network interface controller (vNIC) of an isolated guest to a communication port on the virtual switch;
• and
• establish, by the isolated guest, connection with the respective network based on a respective network name.
