47 # which includes it, in simple terms the inclusion is transparent. #
49 # All paths to config files are relative to the directory that the #
52 # You may also include an executable file, in which case if you do so #
53 # the output of the executable on the standard output will be added #
54 # to your config at the point of the include tag. #
56 # Syntax is as follows: #
57 #<include file="file.conf"> #

249 # maxchans: Maximum number of channels a user in this class
250 # be in at one time. This overrides every other maxchans setting.
253 # timeout: How long (in seconds) the server will wait before
254 # disconnecting a user if they do not do anything on connect.
255 # (Note, this is a client-side thing, if the client does not
256 # send /nick, /user or /pass)
259 # localmax: Maximum local connections per IP (or CIDR mask, see below).
262 # globalmax: Maximum global (network-wide) connections per IP (or CIDR mask, see below).

309 # pingfreq: How often (in seconds) the server tries to ping connecting clients.
312 # hardsendq: maximum amount of data allowed in a client's send queue
313 # before they are dropped. Keep this value higher than the length of
314 # your network's /LIST or /WHO output, or you will have lots of
315 # disconnects from sendq overruns!
318 # softsendq: amount of data in a client's send queue before the server
319 # begins delaying their commands in order to allow the sendq to drain
322 # recvq: amount of data allowed in a client's queue before they are dropped.
325 # threshold: This specifies the amount of command penalty a user is allowed to have
326 # before being quit or fakelagged due to flood. Normal commands have a penalty of 1,
327 # ones such as /OPER have penalties up to 10.
329 # If you are not using fakelag, this should be at least 20 to avoid excess flood kills
330 # from processing some commands.
333 # commandrate: This specifies the maximum rate that commands can be processed.
334 # If commands are sent more rapidly, the user's penalty will increase and they will
335 # either be fakelagged or killed when they reach the threshold
337 # Units are millicommands per second, so 1000 means one line per second.
340 # fakelag: Use fakelag instead of killing users for excessive flood
342 # Fake lag stops command processing for a user when a flood is detected rather than
343 # immediately killing them; their commands are held in the recvq and processed later
344 # as the user's command penalty drops. Note that if this is enabled, flooders will
345 # quit with "RecvQ exceeded" rather than "Excess Flood".
348 # localmax: Maximum local connections per IP.
351 # globalmax: Maximum global (network-wide) connections per IP.
354 # useident: Defines if users in this class must respond to a ident query or not.
357 # limit: How many users are allowed in this class
360 # modes: Usermodes that are set on users in this block on connect.

370 # CIDR configuration allows detection of clones and applying of #

373 # represented as 192.168.1.0/24). This means that abuse across an ISP #

543 # announcets: If set to yes, when the TimeStamp on a channel changes, all users
544 # in channel will be sent a NOTICE about it.
547 # allowmismatched: Setting this option to yes will allow servers to link even
548 # if they don't have the same VF_OPTCOMMON modules loaded. Setting this to
549 # yes may introduce some desyncs and weirdness.

696 # This configuration tag defines the maximum sizes of various types #
697 # on IRC, such as the maximum length of a channel name, and the #
698 # maximum length of a channel. Note that with the exception of the #
699 # identmax value all values given here are the exact values you would #
700 # expect to see on IRC. This contrasts with the older InspIRCd #
701 # releases where these values would be one character shorter than #
702 # defined to account for a null terminator on the end of the text. #
704 # These values should match network-wide otherwise issues will occur. #
706 # The highest safe value you can set any of these options to is 500, #
707 # but it is recommended that you keep them somewhat #
708 # near their defaults (or lower). #
711 # maxnick: Maximum length of a nickname.
714 # maxchan: Maximum length of a channel name.
717 # maxmodes: Maximum number of mode changes per line.
720 # maxident: Maximum length of a ident/username.
723 # maxquit: Maximum length of a quit message.
726 # maxtopic: Maximum length of a channel topic.
729 # maxkick: Maximum length of a kick message.
732 # maxgecos: Maximum length of a GECOS (realname).

743 # Logging is covered with the <log> tag, which you may use to change
744 # the behaviour of the logging of the IRCd.
746 # In InspIRCd as of 1.2, logging is pluggable and very extensible.
747 # Different files can log the same thing, different 'types' of log can
748 # go to different places, and modules can even extend the log tag
749 # to do what they want.
751 # An example log tag would be:
752 # <log method="file" type="OPER" level="default" target="opers.log">
753 # which would log all information on /oper (failed and successful) to
754 # a file called opers.log.
756 # There are many different types which may be used, and modules may
757 # generate their own. A list of useful types:
758 # - USERS - information relating to user connection and disconnection
759 # - CHANNELS - information relating to joining and parting of channels.
760 # XXX someone doc more on this
762 # You may also log *everything* by using a type of *, and subtract things out
763 # of that by using -TYPE - for example "* -USERINPUT -USEROUTPUT".
765 # The following log tag is highly default and uncustomised. It is recommended you
766 # sort out your own log tags. This is just here so you get some output.
768 <log method="file" type="* -USERINPUT -USEROUTPUT -m_spanningtree" level="default" target="ircd.log">
