[AusNOG] New IP Range, Not in Australia

[Scott Howard]

Maxmind update some of their databases weekly, others monthly.

Even then, you're still relying on their customers updating to their latest
database, which could be weeks or months later.

(Their cloud service obviously doesn't have this problem)


There's a good resource on multiple GeoIP providers at
