摘要： Some embodiments provide a method for configuring a first MFE that operates on a container virtual machine (VM) to process packets from a set of containers operating on the container VM. The provided method comprises (a) identifying a logical forwarding element to which the set of containers logically connect; (b) receiving a tag value that maps to the logical forwarding element; and (c) configuring the MFE operating on the container VM to tag data messages received from the containers with the tag value before sending the data messages to a second MFE, operating outside of the container VM, for logical processing.
