Hello Team

I've installed packetbeat and running it on Ubuntu. Everything is fine but I see that geo ip data is missing on maps ?

Any suggestions on how to enable the the geo ip?

Hi, try the steps outlined in [Configuring Packetbeat |Enrich events with geoIP information](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/packetbeat/7.3/packetbeat-geoip.html).
