[ixpmanager] New install step by step

[Vladislav Bidikov]

Hi all,


Things are progressing ...


I installer the first Route Server and did a config as shown here:

http://prntscr.com/k9z8vx


the customer is defined here:

http://prntscr.com/k9z8ny

I chose Customer type as Route Server (although examples show pro-bono as option) is this ok?


The script for generating the BIRD config works fine and bird works (well it starts not sure how to debug correctly with only one RS) 😊


Now several questions emerge:

1.

I would like to add the second Route Server (separate VM)  - can i just add it under routes the same as i did for RS1 ?


2.

Can i add another customer (with private AS number) for Route Colector - and than go from there ?


3.

Since all these VMs (2 x RS, 1 x Rc, 1 x AS112) will be connected on the same Port (the Eth-Trunk) how will IXP manager handle this since there will be 3 customers ?


4.

Since i expect one real customer (ourselves as FCSE - with AS 52188) also will come connected on the same trunk (to save few ETH ports) how to handle this?


5.

Also, i enabled MRTG grapher which i see all files are generated/updated in /srv/mrtg but the web page shows imaged not found:

http://prntscr.com/k9zd66

and, view source does not help since i cannot debug where does the img is loaded from...




Looks like after our whole experience - i can probably write a detailed "DO&DONT for new IXPs"...



Thanks in advance,

Hi,

I will try to do a pull request next week 😊


Since changed the Vendor params of "Huawei" with bundle "Eth-Trunk" - should i do a "re-scan" to have these settings updated - or i need to remove and add the switches again ?


For getting the vendor "Huawei" in the IXP-Manager by default what needs to be done ?


Hope today i will have the grapher "mrtg" ready and install the two RS ...

One last bit, if i like to have a route collector server, can i use a private ASN number for this ??



Cheers,

That's discussed here:

https://github.com/opensolutions/OSS_SNMP/wiki/Device-Discovery

It's a separate project to IXP Manager but, as will all open source
projects on GitHub, a good pull request is the quickest and easiest way.
Especially one that comes with a unit test.
