The for-purchase GeoIP City and GeoIP Country databases are more accurate than the free GeoLite City and GeoLite Country databases free versions of the GeoIP Region, GeoIP Organization, and GeoIP ISP databases are not available. Wireshark 1.1.2 up to 2.5 can use MaxMind's GeoIP (purchase) and GeoLite (free) databases to look up the city, country, AS number, and other information for an IP address. To enable this, go to Edit→Preferences→Protocols→IPv4 (IPv6) and make sure Enable IPv4 (IPv6) geolocation is checked. You can optionally see geolocation data in the IPv4 (IPv6) packet detail tree.
At this point you should be able to load a capture file, select Statistics→Endpoints, and see geolocation information in the IPv4 and IPv6 tabs. Add the full path of each database directory, as shown below: Go to Edit→Preferences→Name Resolution and select MaxMind database directories. Once you've downloaded your databases, you must tell Wireshark where they are. It's more convenient if you put all of the databases in the same directory. You will need to provide your MaxMind license key for the batch file to work though. Alternatively, on Windows at least, you can download the update_geoip.bat file from the Tools wiki page, which works with the MaxMind database s. Refer to MaxMind's Automatic Updates page for more details. To help stay up to date with the latest databases, you may want to install the GeoIP Update program provided by MaxMind. GeoLite2 City, Country, and ASNum: (free download, but you must sign up for a GeoLite2 account first)ĭownload the databases in binary (mmdb) format, rather than CSV format. You can get them at the following locations: Wireshark does not ship with any GeoIP2 or GeoLite2 databases, so you have to download them yourself.
To see if your copy of Wireshark supports MaxMind's GeoIP2 and GeoLite2, go to Help→About Wireshark and look for "MaxMind DB resolver" in the "Compiled with" paragraph. The GeoLite2 version of the AS number database is the only version of that database there is no for-purchase GeoIP2 version. The for-purchase GeoIP2 City and GeoIP2 Country databases are more accurate than the free GeoLite2 City and GeoLite2 Country databases free versions of the GeoIP2 Region, GeoIP2 Organization, and GeoIP2 ISP databases are not available. Wireshark 2.6 and up can use MaxMind's GeoIP2 (purchase) and GeoLite2 (free) databases to look up the city, country, AS number, and other information for an IP address. MaxMind produces databases and software for geolocation.
