[ixpmanager] Customer User Problems

Hi Kyle,

So... ghod. This relates to a legacy issue we just haven't managed to
whitewash away just yet.

Can you manually add a 'Network Info' entry as per:

https://github.com/inex/IXP-Manager/wiki/Installation-08-Setting-Up-Your-IXP#network-info

That should sort you.

You've since said this rectified itself. If you see it again, open an
issue as you suggested.

Yes, it should be there.

Yeah. This is mostly technical debt from adding new features and not
really having a 'proper' design / UX / UI to add them into.

I'd avoid skinning if you can.

Redesigning the customer view is bubbling close to the top of Yann's
list probably Q4 2017 / Q1 2018.
