Connecting to XeroMem

The XeroMem IRC Network utilizes DNS Round-Robin addressing for our users to connect. By default, our Round-Robin is set to issue both IPv4 and IPv6 responses. To connect to the XeroMem IRC Network, use the following server addresses:

  • irc.xeromem.com 6660-6669, 7000 – Non-SSL Connection via the Round-Robin DNS
  • irc.xeromem.com +6697 – SSL Connection via the Round-Robin DNS
  • irc6.xeromem.com 6660-6669, 7000 – Non-SSL Connections specifically to IPv6
  • irc6.xeromem.com +6697 – SSL Connections specifically to IPv6

Additionally, we’ve set up Round-Robin DNS for country / continent-specific connections to the XeroMem IRC Network. You can connect to a server in a specific country using:

  • irc.us.xeromem.com 6660-6669, 7000 – Non-SSL Connection via the Round-Robin DNS for United States-based Servers
  • irc.us.xeromem.com +6697 – SSL Connection via the Round-Robin DNS for United States-based Servers
  • irc.ca.xeromem.com 6660-6669, 7000 – Non-SSL Connection via the Round-Robin DNS for Canada-based Servers
  • irc.ca.xeromem.com +6697 – SSL Connection via the Round-Robin DNS for Canada-based Servers
  • irc.eu.xeromem.com 6660-6669, 7000 – Non-SSL Connection via the Round-Robin DNS for Europe-based Servers
  • irc.eu.xeromem.com +6697 – SSL Connection via the Round-Robin DNS for Europe-based Servers

Note: Country-specific DNS will only take you to country-specific servers when they are present on the network.  If we do not have any EU-based servers, you'll automatically redirect to our primary round-robin.
