| 1 | iptogeo allows to know which country has a specific IP.␊ |
| 2 | It's based on data provided by AFRINIC, ARIN, APNIC, LACNIC and RIPENCC organisation.␊ |
| 3 | ␊ |
| 4 | !!! These data are updated every day, so iptogeo must be recompiled every day to be up to date !!!␊ |
| 5 | ␊ |
| 6 | It supports both IPv4 and IPv6 requests.␊ |
| 7 | ␊ |
| 8 | Be careful : the result is only the assigned IP by a regional regulator, but the end user␊ |

| 10 | or for VPN services.␊ |

| 12 | ␊ |
| 13 | Two mode are available : server mode which listen for queries on default port 53333, and␊ |
| 14 | interactive mode allowing command line queries.␊ |
