Filter by country

Country filtering is useful for a server aimed at a single region, for example a French-speaking RP server, or to cut an attack coming from a country where you have no players.

Go to Anti-DDoS → Management → Country filtering:

Country filtering off

By default the mode is Off: all countries are accepted.

Set up filtering

Section titled “Set up filtering”

Country filtering: Allow only

  1. Mode:
    • Off: all countries are accepted
    • Allow only: only the chosen countries can connect
    • Block: the chosen countries are dropped, others accepted
  2. Add countries: type a country name in the search box, or use Quick add (France, Belgium, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Canada, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia)
  3. The list of chosen countries. The ✕ removes one, Clear all empties the list
  4. Apply: until you click it, Unsaved changes is shown and nothing is applied

The Country filtering menu entry then summarises the setting (e.g. Allowed: 3 countries).
