Some embodiments provide a method for a network controller operating on a host machine that hosts a particular one of multiple centralized routing components for a logical router. The method receives a routing table from a routing protocol application operating on the host machine. Each of the other centralized routing components operates on a different host machine and implements a different interface of the logical router that connects to at least one physical router external to the logical network. The routing protocol application operates as a router server for all of the centralized routing components. For each of the other centralized routing components, the method identifies a set of routes in the routing table to distribute to the centralized routing component. The method sends the identified routes for each centralized routing component to the centralized routing component.
For a network controller operating on a host machine that hosts a particular one of a plurality of centralized routing components for a logical router, a method comprising:
A non-transitory machine readable medium storing a network controller application for execution by at least one processing unit of a host machine that hosts a particular one of a plurality of centralized routing components for a logical router, the network controller application comprising sets of instructions for:
