Border6 Non-Stop Internet: a Commercial BGP-Based SDN
Several SDN solutions that coexist with the traditional control- and data planes instead of ripping them out and replacing them with the new awesomesauce use BGP to modify the network’s forwarding behavior.

Enjoy the show (this time in video format).
