<h2>Using MaxMind GeoLite2 (optional)<a class="headerlink" href="#using-maxmind-geolite2-optional" title="Link to this heading"></a></h2>
<p><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">parsedmarc</span></code> will pick up the <a class="reference external" href="https://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/geolite2-free-geolocation-data">MaxMind GeoLite2 Country database</a> if
it is installed at one of the standard system paths (e.g.
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">/usr/share/GeoIP/GeoLite2-Country.mmdb</span></code>,
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">/var/lib/GeoIP/GeoLite2-Country.mmdb</span></code>, or the equivalent location on
Windows). <strong>Use this only if you specifically prefer MaxMind data over
the bundled IPinfo Lite database — most users do not need it.</strong></p>
<p>To use the <a class="reference external" href="https://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/geolite2-free-geolocation-data">MaxMind GeoLite2 Country database</a> instead of the bundled
IPinfo Lite database, point the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">ip_db_path</span></code> option at it explicitly:</p>
<div class="highlight-ini notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="k">[general]</span>
<span class="na">ip_db_path</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="o">=</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="s">/usr/share/GeoIP/GeoLite2-Country.mmdb</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p><strong>Use this only if you specifically prefer MaxMind data over the
bundled IPinfo Lite database — most users do not need it.</strong> Country
databases like GeoLite2 carry no ASN data, so source attribution for
IP addresses without reverse DNS is reduced when one is used.</p>
<div class="admonition note">
<p class="admonition-title">Note</p>
<p>parsedmarc no longer picks up a GeoLite2/DBIP database from standard
system paths (e.g. <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">/usr/share/GeoIP/GeoLite2-Country.mmdb</span></code>)
automatically — a GeoIP file installed by an unrelated distro package
would silently override the bundled database and disable ASN
enrichment. System paths are now only consulted as a last resort when
the bundled database is missing. If you previously relied on the
automatic pickup, set <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">ip_db_path</span></code> as shown above.</p>
