I can create the Firewall Aliases using the type "Geoip".

The problems are:

1. The Geoip firewall rules are not functioning
2. As far as I can tell, Geoip is not truly installed in the sense that these directories are empty:

/usr/local/share/GeoIP/
/usr/local/share/GeoIP/alias


What is the best way to launch the geoip installation script?

I have just started using Opnsense 19.7.

On the file system, these directories do not yet exist:

/usr/local/share/GeoIP/
/usr/local/share/GeoIP/alias

I have located the following script which should download and install Geoip tables:

/usr/local/opnsense/scripts/filter/lib/geoip.py


Questions:

1. Is there a way to install geoip from the UI?

2. What is the preferred way to install geoip? Should I simply run the above script from the command line?

3. Are there other pre or post installation steps required?

3. Are there
