In some examples, an example method to minimize asymmetric routing at a network node may include maintaining a flow table including one or more records, each record indicating a packet flow and a corresponding tunnel, receiving a data packet to process at a network node, and determining whether to process the data packet as a follower node. The method may also include, responsive to a determination to process the data packet as a follower node, determining whether there is an entry in the flow table for a packet flow associated with the received packet, and, responsive to a determination that there is an entry in the flow table for the packet flow, transmitting the received data packet through a tunnel corresponding to the packet flow.
