Abstract:
Some embodiments provide a system that includes a set of network controllers for receiving definitions of first and second logical switching elements. The system includes several managed switching elements. The set of network controllers configure the several managed switching elements to implement the defined first and second logical switching elements. The system includes several network hosts that are each (1) communicatively coupled to one of the several managed switching elements and (2) associated with one of the first and second logical switching elements. Network data communicated between network hosts associated with the first logical switching element are isolated from network data communicated between network hosts associated with the second logical switching element.

Claim (Index 54):
For a first managed switching element that implements a logical switching element along with a plurality of additional managed switching elements, a method comprising:\n receiving, from a source machine at an ingress port of the first managed switching element, a packet comprising a set of context tag values used in performing logical processing through the logical switching element; performing, on the packet, logical processing through the logical switching element based on the context tag values; modifying the set of context tag values based on results of the processing performed on the packet, the set of context tag values comprising at least a logical output port of the logical switching element for the packet; and forwarding the packet to a second managed switching element of the plurality of additional managed switching elements for the second managed switching element to provide the packet to the destination machine based on the logical output port in the set of context tag values stored in the packet.
