Hello Harry,

Thanks for reaching us out.

In the Interop NY last year we announced that some of our routers are SDN-readyi.e has the capability to get upgraded for Openflow support. Refer the document below (page 4)for more details

The MSR Routers (2000/3000/4000) Openflow support is in the roadmap and unfortunately we don't have a date to share. I do encourage to stay connected in our SDN community for updated information.
