The IRCd may add automatic bans, for example due to a blacklist hit, a spamfilter hit, or because of antirandom or antimixedutf8. When it does, on what should the ban be placed:
- ip: place the ban on the IP address (eg: *@172.16.8.4)
- userip: include the ident portion in the mask (eg: [email protected])
- host: place the ban on the hostname (eg: *@something.example.org), fallback to ip.
- userhost: include the ident portion in the mask (eg: [email protected]), fallback to user@ip.
- account: ban by services account name (eg: ~a:accountname)
- certfp: ban by certificate fingerprint (eg: ~S:00112233etc)
The last two possibilities are only useful if you have a very special setup, it does not apply to most users. The most common choices are ip (the default), host, or userip (if you trust idents).
