I don't know, I don't use Squid.

@antonio-briguglio said in GeoIP Blocking:
so I want that when a customer for example visits a web page in Turkey that I have blocked that a web page is displayed where it warns that the site is blocked instead of the classic internet page not available
That's what called 'doing MITM'.
You can't (it's very hard).
See here for why not.If the sites visited were 'http' only the redirection would be easy. https can't be redirected.

@ronpfs Hi!
I set up geoips on PfblokerNg.
I tried to block a country of Africa Algeria, two countries of Europe, Germany and Sweden and one of Oceania, New Zealand, blocking the inbound and outbound connections. I type in a site from Algeria and it blocks it I type in a site from Germany and it blocks it and so far everything is ok.
But then when I go to type more sites of the countries that I have blocked here is the surprise the sites as if by magic are no longer blocked they are visible.
Why does this happen? is there a maximum number of consultation?
Then in some countries that I have set the block I have noticed for example that blocking four countries in Europe three out of four blocks one no.
Finally, in the log files trying to block, for example, Algeria in Africa, the site is blocked but the log file shows Europe and not Africa. Help -

@antonio-briguglio It is also possible to put domain like .ru in TLD Blacklist. But that's won't block a .net domain using RU ASN.

@ronpfs but I don't understand why after for example 5 interregations sites no longer block them is it normal?

@antonio-briguglio GeoIP isn't always accurate. I block TOP Spammer from RU, RU_rep, CN and CN_rep, but sometimes the Alerts Tab will report another country. That is because the network is in two countries files.
Example for a block of 45.146.165.149 is reported as GB_v4 45.146.164.0/23.

It shouldn't be normal. Investigate the pfblockerNG log files, firewall logs etc to debug what is happening.

The web site may have round robin or otherwise rotating DNS? For the OP, the Geo IP block is by IP address not web site name.

@teamits hi i can't find the program for geoip automatic updates.
The latest version can be downloaded from GitHub called something like geoipupdate_4.0.0_windows_amd64 depending on the version and architecture.
But unfortunately this file is not there.
Can you give me the direct link so I download it on my pc?
Help -
@antonio-briguglio You can do that from the Maxmind web site :

It sounds like you're trying to run updates manually? Let pfBlocker do it.
