It depends what concept you're adopting about SDN.
Some vendors interprets it as "I open my devices with a programmable
interface" (API). Few of these systems give to a common consolle a
centralized vision of the network. Then, the user (admin of the network)
can use it to program the devices through the API provided. With these
API you can set rules everywhere. For example you could use it to
program to your advantage an OSPF or an EIGRP route...or a BGP one.

Hey folks,
Another newbee question: Will the future SDN networks have routing
protocols such as OSPF, EIGRP? I apologize if these questions are
"simple" but i really cant find this information anywhere.. I know
that hybrid will be able to support the old protocols and i know about
routeflow.
What i specifically want to know is: Will future SDN networks need
OSPF/EIGRP? Does SDN in its pure form mean the end of OSPF/EIGRP?
Kind Regards,
