[c-nsp] Firepower Threat Defense Geolocation DB

[Jon Lewis]

I've been going back and forth with cisco support for 2 weeks on this and 
gotten nowhere.  Does anyone know of a way to verify (and update if 
needed) Cisco's IP Geo data for the FTD platform?  I've been trying to get 
support to let me download the DB files from

https://software.cisco.com/download/home/286322194/type/286321931/release/GeoDB

but as I don't have the appropriate service contract, that seems to not be 
happening.

We have an IP block (57.135/16) that is former RIPE space.  We've had some 
IP Geo issues with it, but thought those were behind us.  Recently, we've 
run into IP Geo based filtering/redirection issues with this space.  The 
first was a network that admitted it was an issue with their FTD blocking 
our traffic & needing an update.  So, I assume the latest IP Geo data from 
cisco has 57.135/16 correctly listed as ARIN/US, but I'd like to be sure 
of that and also look back at past versions of the DB to see how far 
behind someone needs to be to have it listed as RIPE/EU space.
