VyOS 1.5.0 has the following in /etc/cron.d/vyos-geoip
user@router:/etc/cron.d$ cat vyos-geoip 30 4 * * 1 root sg vyattacfg "/usr/libexec/vyos/geoip-update.py --force" >/tmp/geoip-update.log 2>&1
However it appears the 1.5.0 geoip-update.py does not support the --force flag:
user@router:/etc/cron.hourly$ cat /tmp/geoip-update.log usage: geoip-update.py [-h] [--init] geoip-update.py: error: unrecognized arguments: --force
I would assume there is also a "update geoip on reboot" somewhere in the system, it potentially suffers from the same issue?
