[ixpmanager] Birdseye configurations

Hello Barry,

I am running a test lab to understand how bird and Birdseye works with IXP Manager. I was going through the router page in IXP Manager and it says the handle option is used in API calls and I am not sure how that will work since I am running only one instance of Bird (IPv4) on my machine with no DNS configurations. I have attached my results on both machines using the "http://docs.ixpmanager.org/features/looking-glass/#debugging" template.

Hi Muyiwa,

can you work through:

http://docs.ixpmanager.org/features/looking-glass/#debugging


Separately, Bird 1.5 is pretty old at this stage. We'd recommend v1.6.3 which is very stable and supports large BGP communities.
