For Birdseye to differentiate between which one you <br>want, it requires you to use domain names - this is explained here:<br><br><a href="https://github.com/inex/birdseye#configuration">https://github.com/inex/birdseye#configuration</a><br><br>i.e. using 196.216.148.190 above will not work.<br><br>> *<a href="mailto:root@birdtest">root@birdtest</a>:/etc/bird# ls -la /var/run/bird*<br>> */total 0<br>> drwxrwxr-x 2 bird bird 60 Apr 14 19:13 .<br>> drwxr-xr-x 28 root root 940 Apr 23 01:47 ..<br>> srw-rw---- 1 bird bird 0 Apr 14 19:13 bird.ctl<br><br>This indicates an additional issue with your route server configuration. <br>The scripts we provide with IXP Manager will name the socket using the <br>router handle you used in IXP Manager. i.e. this should be called:<br><br>/var/run/bird/rs1-ipv4.ctl<br><br>or similar. Again, it's the handle /you/ chose in IXP Manager - first <br>input field here:<br><br><a href="https://docs.ixpmanager.org/features/routers/#managing-routers">https://docs.ixpmanager.org/features/routers/#managing-routers</a><br><br><br>The fact that bird.ctl exists indicates that the default Bird instance <br>is running - the one you get when you 'apt install bird'. Depending on <br>operating system, you need to ensure this doesn't run by removing the <br>default configuration file (e.g. /etc/bird/bird[6].conf and stopping the <br>service:<br><br>systemctl stop bird.service<br>systemctl stop bird6.service<br>systemctl disable bird.service<br>systemctl disable bird6.service<br><br>NB: this is a guess as we install from source currently:<br><br><a href="https://docs.ixpmanager.org/features/rpki/#enabling-rpki">https://docs.ixpmanager.org/features/rpki/#enabling-rpki</a><br><br><br>Because this default version is running, it may prevent your IXP Manager <br>versions from starting as there will already be a daemon listening on <br>port *:179.<br><br><br>> *<a href="mailto:root@birdtest">root@birdtest</a>:/srv/birdseye-1.2.0# cat /srv/birdseye-1.2.0/*env | egrep <br>> -v '(^#)|(^\s*$)'*<br>> *BIRDC="/usr/bin/sudo /srv/birdseye/bin/birdc -2 -s <br>> /var/run/bird/rs1-lan1-ipv4.ctl"*<br><br>So you have configured Birdseye to look for <br>/var/run/bird/rs1-lan1-ipv4.ctl but that doesn't exist because your Bird <br>is not running.
