Tip of the day: UnrealIRCd 6 uses GeoIP by default. It is shown in WHOIS but also available as country in mask items,

for example it can be used in the TLD Block to serve a Spanish MOTD to people in Spanish speaking countries.

Server protocol:Hop count

From UnrealIRCd documentation wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The hop count of an entry (user or server) is the number of hops between you and said entry. So a local user would have a hop count of 0. A user on a server directly linked to you has a hop count of 1.

Hop counts are used in the UID, NICK and SID commands (and more). They are also displayed in the WHO client command (unless flat-map is enabled).
