Some embodiments provide a method for a first managed forwarding element (MFE). The method receives a packet from a data compute node that connects to the MFE. The packet has a destination address that corresponds to a data compute node in a remote network. The method determines (i) a group of MFEs that form a bridge cluster for sending packets to the remote network and (ii) multiple tunnel endpoints for the group of MFEs, wherein each MFE in the group has at least one of the plurality of tunnel endpoints. The method selects one of the plurality of tunnel endpoints as a destination tunnel endpoint for the packet. The method encapsulates the packet with a source tunnel endpoint associated with the first MFE and the selected destination tunnel endpoint.
