## What it is
A quarterly-updated dataset of IP address ranges for mainland China, maintained by IPIP.NET from BGP/ASN and WHOIS data. It is distributed as plain list files for use in routing, firewall, and traffic-filtering configurations.

## Use cases
- block or allow traffic based on whether an IP is in China
- generate firewall or router ISP rules for China IP ranges
- split routing for VPN or proxy clients to bypass domestic traffic
- geo-filter CDN or DNS traffic by country
- analyze whether an IP address belongs to mainland China

## When to choose
- you need a simple, regularly refreshed list of China IP CIDR blocks
- you configure multi-WAN routers, firewalls, or proxy split-tunneling rules
- you want a free community-maintained alternative to commercial geo-IP databases for country-level filtering

## When to avoid
- you need city-level or high-precision IP geolocation
- you require strict data-quality guarantees or daily updates
- your project cannot comply with the CC-BY-NC-SA 4.0 non-commercial license
