The extracted field name is 'IP' in caps? Just want to make sure you've got the proper field. I've seen this issue if you tried to use a look up on a field and you had the case incorrect.

Hi,
yes the field is IP uppercase. I need to update the article, i have it running in production and somehow it won't in integration (??)

I took the plunge and installed in our Prudoction environment with the same search so i presume something is amiss.
Search is
index="asa" IP="*" | dedup IP | geoip IP
with IP being the public ip
