Great. So having misappropriated the word "mesh" they've now done the same with "SDN".

I have to admit... this makes me somewhat nervous. It will be interesting to see how ASUS chooses to differentiate certain features & options between their various product models. IMO this has marketing written all over it. I really hope they don't try to remove any of the recent add on features which were never included within the original device packaging & documentation.

Curious, was that a reference to the old style... (Serial Data Networks)?

So excited for this! https://www.asus.com/my/news/lundjcszlprbnvqf/

"Using the self-defined network feature, each of the Ethernet ports on these ExpertWiFi devices can be assigned to a VLAN"

In typical (IMHO) network worlds, SDN - Software Defined Network

Software-defined networking - Wikipedia

Very different from “mesh” in that it is dynamic and somewhat intelligent in architecture.

As @ColinTaylor said, yet another case of company product marketers taking liberties with terms.
