Hey Joel! Thanks a lot for the reply, really appreciate it.
If i may ask: With OpenFlow a network engineer could from now on pick which features he or she wants to enable and which not. So i could for example only use OSPF. Now, how does one configure OSPF on a controller? I mean in a pure SDN environment where all the intelligence is in the controller.. Do you configure OSPF on the controller? And is it like configuring OSPF on a router? Thanks again, Farhad. 2013/5/19 Joel Halpern <joel.halp...@ericsson.com> > ** > There are people who believe it is practical to control an entire large > itnerprise or operator internal network with a single cluster of SDN > controllers.
