[ixpmanager] Bird's Eye looking glass setup

[m.daada at ixp.net.ng]

Hello Will,

Thanks for your help.

My case is a little bit different as I am running one version of Bird of my
Linux machine and so I don't have any DNS entries. For my API end point on
IXP Manager I used "http://192.168.10.141/api" but that doesn't seem to
work.

Like you said it might be a bug in IXP Manager.

Still need help to resolve this.

Best regards,

Muyiwa (IXPN)

Hi Muyiwa,

I recently had a similar case. To avoid any issues, I created an entry in my
host file with an extension (something like rs1.internal.notpublic.blah) and
all my issues magically disappeared. It however didn't worked with a single
hostname (aka rs1).

I must note that the curl debug worked with only the hostname, but
ixpmanager worked only with a full hostname+extension. I don't know if it's
a bug or a feature/requirement (I might have missed that in the
documentation), but that's what I noticed.

Hope it helps,

Cheers,

Will
