Hi Muyiwa,

So it's not actually used in the API calls. That was the intention (and
maybe still should be) but as it stands IXP Manager just GETs the API
URL as given (so the 'simple' method you're trying to use below or the
DNS method as described at:
https://github.com/inex/birdseye/blob/master/README.md#configuration

Should be fine (but slightly unusual in a typical production environment
where you'd probably have v4 + v6).

Thanks!

Looks good.

Not good :-(
Looks like a lighttpd config issue as Birdseye throws a 500 (rather than
a 404).
This should work fine with just .env regardless of IXP Manager. You'll
need to concentrate on the Birdseye side of things. On face value, the
lighttpd file you sent looks fine but you'll need to go through it line
by line and test.
