CirrocumulusIs f5 bigip asm policies(ip geolocation) database associated with Geoip database or ip intelligence?
Hello Everyone, I wanted to know: how does the f5 bigip asm policies ip geolocation categorize the source IP as an anonymous proxy, and how does it maintain its database, like the update interval ...
IPI - is a service provided by a 3rd party "brightcloud". it checks for updates often - automagically, it is not something that is provided or maintained by f5.
https://www.brightcloud.com/Geolocation - is provided by f5. Not sure of update frequency - but it usually a manual update. This need to be maintained and if i were to take a stab at it - i would say its origin is IANA, then cleaned and organized by f5 to be downloaded and implemented.
