| Server | Location | IP support | TLS port | IRC port |

Use a hostname for TLS so your client can verify the server’s certificate. Select a hostname to open it in your IRC client.
Use TLS on port 6697
TLS encrypts the connection between your IRC client and the server. Enable TLS (sometimes labelled SSL) and use port 6697. Keep certificate verification enabled.
Port 6667 is available for standard, unencrypted IRC.
IPv4 and IPv6
Both servers have public IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. Your client can use the same hostname for either; IPv6 requires a working IPv6 connection from your provider.
You will reach the same network whichever server or IP version you use.
