Is it dynamic? That file doesn't seem to exist on my system. 

root at ixpm:/srv/ixpmanager# updatedb 
root at ixpm:/srv/ixpmanager# locate gen_config 
root at ixpm:/srv/ixpmanager# 


I did enter all of that particular section into the command line (well, adjusted for my information) and got a 0 byte file, which is why I started looking.

The correct URL is: 

https://ixp.example.com/ixp/api/v4/router/gen_config/{handle} 

The handle element (which must be a key from config/routers.php) is 
essential.
