# Country Code Lists

Country code lists allow you to allow or deny whole country CIDR ranges. The CIDR blocks are generated from the [Maxmind GeoLite Country database](http://www.maxmind.com/app/geolitecountry) and relies on that service being available.

Additionally, ASN numbers can also be used for the options `CC_DENY` `CC_ALLOW` `CC_ALLOW_FILTER` `CC_ALLOW_PORTS` `CC_DENY_PORTS` `CC_IGNORE` . The same warnings for Country Codes apply to the use of ASNs. Learn more about [Autonomous System Numbers (ASN)](http://www.iana.org/assignments/as-numbers/as-numbers.xhtml)

> > > > • Some of these country lists contain thousands of IP addresses and could cause serious network and/or performance issues, so make sure that you enable `LF_IPSET` in `/etc/csf/csf.conf` if your operating system supports it.
> > > > • These lists are never 100% accurate and some ISP's (e.g. AOL) use non-geographic IP address designations for their clients.
> > > > • `CC_ALLOW` allows access through all ports in the firewall. For this reason `CC_ALLOW` probably has very limited use and `CC_ALLOW_FILTER` is preferred.
