[ixpmanager] Birdseye documentation

[Kyle Spencer]

Does the .ctl in the line:

BIRDC="/usr/bin/sudo /srv/birdseye/bin/birdc -4 -s
/var/run/bird/rs1-kla1-ipv4.ctl"

Need to reference an existing ctl file from one of my bird daemons? Or
should it be new and unique?

# ls /var/run/bird/
bird6.ctl  bird.ctl
