Done centralised/hybrid routing/fibbing -- as someone pointed out, forwarding continues if a central controler caches - depends on timeout in openflow added state/fib entries - with fibbing, the timeout will be whatever OSPF Or equiv does - so a comparison is potentially a bit more subtle than as presented.
Also, SDN/Openflow lets you add entries based on 5-tuple, whereas fibbing lets you add by destination only.....so potentially more fine grain choices in SDN, even if at the cost of more state - so the "prefix hijack" in fibbing is neat, but not the last word in adding custom routes...(e.g. if you wanted by source, needs more state than can be added by fake Link State Advert - as far as I can see)
rest of week was on BGP - why, what, how, where, when, and why not!
