Country Blocking - Google

Greetings,

I'm running Current firmware version: 9.204-20, and I've got a country blocking problem with a Google IP block of 74.125.0.0/16.

It appears that Google owns this block, and recently transferred it out of China, to Mountain View, however, the Sophos Country blocker is still blocking it.

The URL 74.125.70.x IP Address Location Lookup shows this still listed in China. Any idea what Sophos uses for a geo-location database, and can it get updated?

I'm allowing those through, but it has caused a headache...

Thanks, Mark

The current on-UTM database can be queried.

Command line example, filtering for not US:

for X in {0..255} ; do for Y in {0..255} ; do echo -e -n 74.125.$X.$Y\t ; geoiplookup 74.125.$X.$Y ; done ;done | grep -v 'US, United States'
