Ban server block

From UnrealIRCd documentation wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

This block disables a server's ability to connect to the network. If the server links directly to your server, the link is denied. If the server links to a remote server, the local server will disconnect from the network.

Syntax

ban server {
	mask <server-name>;
	reason <reason-for-ban>;
}

The ban::mask field specifies a wildcard mask to match against the server attempting to connect's name, and ban::reason specifies the reason for which this ban has been placed.

Example

ban server {
	mask broken.server.my.network.com;
	reason "Its broken!";
}
