IPv6 Public Trial!

Posted by meeb on Thursday 01 August 2013

After a huge amount of work QuakeNet is pleased to announce our first public trial of IPv6 enabled servers. This means any users wishing to connect to QuakeNet using IPv6 can now do so directly. Please connect to our IPv6 server at:

irc6.quakenet.org

This is also our first test of limiting connections sanely, in the past if you connect over 5 clients your IP would get a short ban from the network (disconnecting everyone on the same IP), this server will deny clients over 5 connections rather than ban everyone. We look forward to seeing all of our IPv6 enabled users connecting to QuakeNet natively!

If you have an existing trust group feel free to drop by in #help to have your IPv6 prefix added to it. Also, the trust request form will be upgraded shortly to support IPv6.

Nice to see IPv6 starting to be supported (finally!). Having connections denied instead of banned is great! Good job QuakeNet.
