Does BIG IP Ver. 12.X support automatic updates of the Geo Location Database?

Hi,   We are using F5 BIG IP Ver 11.6.0 at the moment. We did employ Geo-blocking for a while however we found that we needed to manually update the DB or we were soon outdated and we saw some IPs...

    Chris,

     

    I don't believe this has been done. The current solution article for updating the database list version 12.x under 'Applies To':

     

    https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/11000/100/sol11176.html

     

    Also, I do know there is an enhancement request still open on this internally.

     

    Thanks, Tikka
