The two options will be mutually exclusive though. This new feature will be backported as to old release and the old GeoIP support will have to stay ( -with-geoip).
New maxmind libraries called "libmaxminddb" is replacement of old "GeoIP" shared libraries with new API:įunctions and data structures begin from MMDB_*.Įxamples: MMDB_lookup_string(&mmdb, ip_address, &gai_error, &mmdb_error) MMDB_get_entry_data_list(&result.entry, &entry_data_list) MMDB_dump_entry_data_list(stdout, entry_data_list, 2) So old function calls will not work with new shared libraries, so developers have to change headers and function calls.īind911 uses headers at lib/dns/geoip.c: #include #include Īnd calls like: GeoIP_country_code_by* GeoIP_country_name_by* The point is that MaxMind changed the schema and API for GeoIP2/GeoLite2, It has the same schema but more data than free. We use GeoIP commercial database, so we rely on it, and it realy works. Simple example for Australia and New Zealand that we use: acl "ANZ"
Maxmind geolite2 free#
I did check their website and they are still providing a free community edition of the db, but the schema is new.
Maxmind geolite2 update#
Please update the GeoIP support in BIND to work with the new API/schema. We will also disable free downloads of GeoLite Legacy databases from the geoipupdate program on that date.' Request 'At the beginning of April, 2018, we will cease updating the GeoLite Legacy downloadable databases. Maxmind is discontinuing support for the version of their GeoIP db that is supported currently by BIND.
