Abstract
Some embodiments provide a method, for configuring logical network entities at a host computer. The method receives configuration data for a particular logical networking entity implemented at the host computer. The method identifies that the configuration data for the particular logical networking entity includes at least two conflicting configuration settings for the particular logical networking entity. At least one of the configuration settings for the particular logical networking entity is based on association of a configuration profile to a group of logical entities that includes the particular logical networking entity. The method determines a particular one of the conflicting configuration settings with a highest priority to apply to the particular logical networking entity at the host computer.
