GeoIP database not updating in opnsense-business

[vpx]

I just noticed our GeoIP database never updated since the beginning. Version is OPNsense 24.4.3-amd64.

Is it only updated if there is actually a rule using a GeoIP alias?

I've not used this feature before but I'm planning to.

Documentation says if the "Url" field in "Firewall: Aliases: GeoIP settings" is empty in the Business Edition it will download the database from the OPNsense servers.

To answer my own question, yes it is only updated once an alias was created.
