Custom iplocation

Path Finder

We are currently the implication command to external IP addresses and it works great.

Is it possible to create a custom iplocation type lookup for sets of internal/corp IP ranges that we define too lookup cities and countries?

Hi pjohnson1,
Yes, you have to create your own lookup containing the same information of the external addresses:

  • IP range,
  • latitude,
  • longitude,
  • city,

then you can add all the information you like, related to that location.

So you can call this lookup as a normal one using the IP address as a key.

Only one hint: put attention to the field names you use, it's easier to use the same of external addresses.

Ciao.
