I'd like to block traffic from China and I set Geo IP filter.

Traffic from China is blocked. But part of traffic from Japan is also blocked.

I must receive traffic from Japan.

What can I do?

    Thank you for your comment.

    My device is USG110.
    Auto Update of Geo IP screen was not checked. That's maybe my mistake.
    After update, Geo IP is working well.

    Keeping this feature checked ensures that the Geo IP database stays up-to-date, which helps improve the security and accuracy of geographic-based filtering.
