XF 1.4 Will Ban IP affect the registration as well?

[Mv.RFX]

I have a spam issue from a certain country. I saw this feature of "Ban IP" and was wondering if I use the IP address of a country like this e.g. "192.*" will it also prevent everyone from the country that has IP adress of 192 from registering or at least put them in the users awaiting registration queue?

If you ban the entire block, it will prevent anyone using an IP address beginning with that from registering.

thank you.

Specifically, it bans them from even viewing.
