RED and countries IP

mjpmotw
We are based in Europe, Switzerland.

I have some RED devices all over Europe. When I use the Operation Mode "standard/unified" all Google Searches done in Italy use Switzerland as location and IP-geo-lock filter are in place, not letting users buy things or using Google Maps or.

When I used Operation mode "standard/split" I will lose the capability to use my content filtering and firewall rules.

Any ideas how to resolve this issue of multi-country access?

Regards ,Matthias

    Matthias, are you saying, for example, that you want the folks behind the REDs to have their web surfing go through Web Filtering in your UTM, but to have their requests leave your UTM with a public IP from Italy?  That can't work.

    Cheers - Bob

    In this case you will have to use full featured UTMs (network and web security subscription), not REDs...

    Then again, maybe you can solve this problem by using a Parent Proxy in Italy for Google.it.  I guess I don't understand what's being blocked where.

    Cheers - Bob

    Basically I want that traffic miraculously origin in Italy, get web-content-filtered in Switzerland, jumps back to Italy and leaves with an Italian IP to circumvent geoblocks. Yes [:)]

    I thought maybe there is a magic workaround.
