[ixpmanager] IXP-Manager install

[Joe Wooller]

Hi Nick, 

Thanks for that, I am still plugging away, I have a few things I need ask about but will compile a list tomorrow :)
I can wait for the updates to get pushed out, I will need to figure out how to use this in replace of cacti. But so far I am liking it.
A few other things I will need to do is create some custom views so I can use my existing Membership DB, but that shouldn't be a problem :P

Let me know when you have pushed out some more code to git and I will try an update.

Cheers
Joe
