Report or Log Showing Countries Blocked

Jhaislet
Is there a text report that shows exactly which countries are being blocked in the Packet Filter->Country Blocking tab?

I'm having trouble with an online game and have already unblocked about 40 countries.  I need to see, specifically, which country data is routing through so that I can just unblock a handful (instead of disabling country blocking all together).

    Hi, have you already looked at the PacketFilter and IPS logs?

    Also check the web security logs if the game is web-based.

    No dice.  I'm not seeing anything that lists the specific country being blocked.  I'm having to go through the logs and manually google the IP address being blocked to see what it's home country is, then uncheck that country from the list.  This is for the Xbox Live system.  Evidently, they bounce you around from servers in multiple foreign countries to get listings for games to join.  Because of this, I've had to add approximately 10 countries I'd rather have blocked. 

    Feature request:  Have country blocking be configurable like a Packet Filter, so you can open some of your network to certain countries, but block the rest of your network from foreign countries.  The all or none approach currently implemented by Astaro is lacking in this area.  For instance, you would want servers located in your DMZ accessible to all countries, but requests from foreign countries to your internal network should be blocked.
