Local controller agent for converting logical pipeline data

Some embodiments provide a method for a controller agent operating in a physical machine alongside a managed forwarding element (MFE) that implements several logical networks. The method receives a first set of flow entries describing a particular logical network. The flow entries of the first set have a first format. The method receives a set of physical network description data and binding data that binds logical network entities to the physical network. Based on the received flow entries, physical network description data, and binding data, the method generates a second set of flow entries for implementing the particular logical network in the physical network. The flow entries of the second set have a second format readable by the MFE. The method distributes the second set of flow entries to the MFE.
