> I have many internal users, and both public and private address space in use. I would like to be able to usefully separate my networks from the country we're in, and provide sensible geoip data. For my public range, I can easily fix the text fields I want to change (eg we get the wrong timezone, but that doesn't affect @timestamp; and I change [geoip][country\_name] to a private value), and for my 10.0.0.0/8 network I can create the [geoip] structure I need. Unfortunately I can't figure out how…
