Methods and systems for communicating between nodes within computing clusters. In one embodiment, a method is provided that includes receiving, at a first node within a first cluster, a packet for transmission from a second node within the first cluster. The packet for transmission may be received via a local tunnel of the first cluster. A routing agent of the first node may identify a first destination address included within the packet for transmission and determine that the first destination address corresponds to a second cluster. The routing agent may also generate a second destination address corresponding to a third node of the second cluster and transmit the packet to the second destination address via an external tunnel between a plurality of clusters including the first cluster and the second cluster.
