[ixpmanager] Route Server Video Tutorial Series

[Barry O'Donovan (INEX)]

Hi all,

we've published a new IXP Manager Route Server video tutorial series via 
the tutorials section <https://www.ixpmanager.org/support/tutorials> on 
the website. In all, there's 2.5hrs of brand new and current content on 
building an automated and secure route server at an IXP.

Route servers are critical IXP infrastructure and IXPs have a 
responsibility for ensuring they are resilient, reliable and especially 
secure in terms of the routes they accept and propagate. At INEX, we've 
been running automated and secure route servers since we first launched 
the service in 2007. IXP Manager contains all our experience and 
knowledge and the default templates that ship with the platform are the 
very same ones that we use in production.

We hope this video series brings all our past presentations, workshops 
and documentation on route servers together in one neat package. The 
series itself will introduce route servers and explain why they are a 
critical production service at an exchange; show how you can generate 
the configuration and automate route servers from IXP Manager; we'll 
install our own open source looking glass Birdseye 
<https://github.com/inex/birdseye> too which enables a large amount of 
route server features within the IXP Manager UI; and then we'll get to 
the weeds of securing route servers with IRRDB filtering and RPKI.

One thing I cannot promise is good production quality 😉

We hope they're of use,
  - Barry
