The following article presents the most important aspects of routing technologies and the QoS (Quality of Service) of the SDN architecture. The interaction of SDN with traditional or legacy networks is discussed in depth and concepts related to flow management are developed. Additionally, the analysis of the Open Flow protocol is included.
