RE: OT: IP Blocks by country/region?

["McCammon, Keith" <Keith.McCammon () eadvancemed com>]

I'm sure that there are any number of sites that provide these types of lists.  However, I would hardly recommend 
proactive blocking based on such a list, as IP address assignment is purely administrative.  IP address blocks are very 
commonly ported or redistributed to locations other than the location listed in the various registries.  Granted, 
porting country-to-country is less common than company-to-company, but it is still done.

Just my $.02...

Subject: [Snort-users] OT: IP Blocks by country/region?


Does anyone know of a site that has listings (if such exist) that show what
ip address blocks belong to what country or region?

As you probably all see in your snort logs, there are a number of countries
that seem to be common sources of unwanted traffic.  

If anyone can offer any suggestions, it would be appreciated.
