Static route types for logical routers

A non-transitory machine readable medium storing a program for execution by at least one processing unit, the program comprising sets of instructions for:

• receiving a configuration for a first logical router, the configuration comprising a static route for the first logical router;
• defining a plurality of logical routing components with separate routing tables for the first logical router, the plurality of logical routing components comprising a distributed routing component and at least one centralized routing component, wherein the distributed routing component is implemented by a plurality of managed forwarding elements;
• adding a static first route for the static route to the routing tables of at least a first subset of the routing components of the first logical router, the static first added route having a first static route type;
• and
• based on a connection of a second logical router to the first logical router:
• defining a logical switch that connects to the distributed routing component of the first logical router and a logical routing component of the second logical router, the logical switch having an assigned subnet;
• adding a connected second route for the assigned subnet to the routing table of the distributed routing component;
• and
• adding a static third route for the assigned subnet to the routing tables of the centralized routing components of the first logical router, the static third added route having a second static route type different from the first static route type;
• and
• distributing the routing tables of the plurality of logical routing components to the plurality of managed forwarding elements, wherein the managed forwarding elements use routes in the distributed routing tables to process network traffic.
