Abstract
Some embodiments provide a method for a network management and control system that manages a virtual infrastructure deployed across a set of datacenters. Based on input from a top-level user of the virtual infrastructure, the method deploys a first logical network within the virtual infrastructure and defines one or more second-level users of the virtual infrastructure. The method receives input from a second-level user of the virtual infrastructure to define a second logical network and connect the second logical network to the first logical network. The first and second logical networks use a same data model and the second-level users are restricted from viewing configuration of the first logical network.
