AS Number filtering

[Carter Bullard]

Hey James,
The trick is your ralabel.conf file, and if you have any GeoIP
support compiled into your clients.  

Is ARGUS_GEOIP defined in your clients ./include/argus_config.h file?

    $ fgrep ARGUS_GEOIP ./include/argus_config.h
    #define ARGUS_GEOIP /**/

If you don’t see the above, what does configure say about geoip ???

    $ ./configure | fgrep -i geoip
