Hi Suresh,

I would suggest you to try RouteFlow:

https://sites.google.com/site/routeflow/

RouteFlow includes by default the POX controller, other popular
controllers are also supported. In the multi-controller branch the
support of multiple controllers running at the same time each
controlling different set of switches is also suported;

I would suggest you start by downloading the pre-configured VM and try
out tutorial 2 that features 4 OSPF routers. Adapting it to a three
router topology and configuring BGP is straighforward.
