Configuring IP Country Plug-in

The IP Country anti-fraud plug-in checks whether a customer host location country and the country mentioned in his/her account profile are different.

The IP Country plug-in is shipped with the GeoIP Free Country database created by MaxMind.

The plug-in uses the GeoIP database in a binary form. Using the Parallels Business Automation - Standard Provider Control Center tools, a Provider can either update the MaxMind default database or replace it with a commercial one. The Reseller Control Center allows only viewing the plug-in settings.

Note: Please make sure that a new database is unpacked before uploading it into Parallels Business Automation - Standard.
