[ixpmanager] IXP Manager Route Server with Bird2 sync/api reconfigure script error.

[Earl Tan]

Thanks Everyone!, I have notified the Network Team about the findings and
they'll coordinate with APNIC about the 16-bit ASN.

I tried the conditional changes and applied it as a skin file. I
encountered a new error on line 384 "bird:
/usr/local/etc/bird/bird-rcbc-rs2-ipv4.conf.284028:381:48 Value 150786 out
of range (0-65535)". line 381 referred to ->
https://github.com/inex/IXP-Manager/blob/master/resources/views/api/v4/router/server/bird2/neighbors.foil.php
Line
249 of that file. I added the same conditional used on
"community-filter.foil.php" onto Line 249 of neighbors.foil.php ( skin ).

( After above ) It still produced the initial error msg of "ERROR: non-zero
return from /usr/sbin/bird when parsing
/usr/local/etc/bird/bird-rcbc-rs2-ipv4.conf.284427" after running
"./api-reconfigure-example-birdv2.sh -h rcbc-rs2-ipv4"

I tried running "bird -p -c
/usr/local/etc/bird/bird-rcbc-rs2-ipv4.conf.284427" and now the echo's
empty.

Thanks!
