Geolocation database overview
Using the BIG-IQ user interface to manage the geolocation databases on your BIG-IQ devices, you can quickly assess whether each managed BIG-IP version is using the correct geolocation database files. The work flow for updating the database packages is listed here.
- Download geolocation files from F5
- Download the geolocation and checksum files for each BIG-IP version managed on this BIG-IQ.
- Update the geolocation database packages
- Update the database file stored on BIG-IQ, so that when you send updates to your BIG-IP devices you know you are sending the correct version.
- Push the update to managed devices
- When you specify an update, you can send the most current package to all of your managed devices. You can also specify which update packages to send, which devices to update, or both.
