Abstract: A method for enabling secure communication. The method includes providing a first virtual network function (“VNF”) at a first network location and providing a second VNF at a second network location. A first Layer 3 virtual private network (“L3 VPN”) tunnel is constructed by the first VNF and the second VNF between the first network location and the second network location, and a first local area network (“LAN”) at the first network location and a second LAN at the second network location are connected by the first L3 VPN tunnel. Further provided is a method for establishing a secure communication environment.
