Abstract

Some embodiments provide a novel method for performing a service at a host computer that executes data compute nodes (DCNs). For a data message, the method identifies a service tag and a set of attributes associated with the service tag. The method then uses the identified set of attributes to identify a service rule, and performs a service on the data message based on the identified service rule.
