Abstract
Some embodiments provide a method for presenting a visualization of a data message flow within a logical network that is implemented across multiple sites. The method receives flow tracing data regarding the data message flow from a source endpoint in a first site to a second endpoint in a second site. The data message flow is processed according to logical forwarding elements (LFEs) implemented in at least the first and second sites. For each of the sites through which the data message flow passes, the method identifies the LFEs that process the data message flow in the site. The method presents a visualization for the data message flow. The visualization includes a separate section for each site through which the data message flow passes. Each section indicates at least a subset of the LFEs that process the data message flow in the corresponding site for the section.
