This is mostly covered in the general router configuration section - e.g.:

https://docs.ixpmanager.org/features/routers/#configuration-generation-overview

Currently cronjob. Timing is at your discretion but Bird won't be 
reconfigured by our scripts unless the config file has changed so hourly 
is fine.

In the above page, we link to here also for the scripts we use:

Hope that helps,
