Abstract
Apparatuses, methods, systems, and program products are disclosed for controller-based dynamic routing in a software defined network environment. A gateway module receives a routing protocol control packet at a virtual gateway of a software defined network ('SDN'). The SDN includes one or more virtual gateways that connect the SDN to one or more external networks. A routing control module forwards the received routing protocol control packet to a controller for the SDN. The SDN controller updates a routing information base for the SDN based on the received routing protocol control packet. An update module sends at least a portion of the routing information base to one or more external routers connected to the SDN.
