Abstract
Some embodiments provide a method for a network controller. The method receives network configuration data including an association of an entity configuration profile set with a logical network entity. The entity configuration profile set is a group of at least two entity configuration profiles for different types of settings to apply to logical network entities with which the entity configuration profile set is associated. The method identifies a host machine at which the logical network entity is implemented. The method distributes the entity configuration profile set and each of the at least two entity configuration profiles to the identified host machine.
