RPL_NAMREPLY =
353
RPL_NAMEREPLY =
RPL_NAMREPLY
RPL_ENDOFNAMES =

To reply to a NAMES message, a reply pair consisting of RPL_NAMREPLY and RPL_ENDOFNAMES is sent by the server back to the client. If there is no channel found as in the query, then only RPL_ENDOFNAMES is returned. The exception to this is when a NAMES message is sent with no parameters and all visible channels and contents are sent back in a series of RPL_NAMEREPLY messages with a RPL_ENDOFNAMES to mark the end.

366
364
365
RPL_BANLIST =
367
RPL_ENDOFBANLIST =

When listing the active ‘bans’ for a given channel, a server is required to send the list back using the RPL_BANLIST and RPL_ENDOFBANLIST messages. A separate RPL_BANLIST is sent for each active banid. After the banids have been listed (or if none present) a RPL_ENDOFBANLIST must be sent.

368
RPL_INFO =
371
RPL_ENDOFINFO =

A server responding to an INFO message is required to send all its ‘info’ in a series of RPL_INFO messages with a RPL_ENDOFINFO reply to indicate the end of the replies.

374
RPL_MOTDSTART =
375
RPL_MOTD =
372
RPL_ENDOFMOTD =

When responding to the MOTD message and the MOTD file is found, the file is displayed line by line, with each line no longer than 80 characters, using RPL_MOTD format replies. These should be surrounded by a RPL_MOTDSTART (before the RPL_MOTDs) and an RPL_ENDOFMOTD (after).

376
RPL_YOUREOPER =

RPL_YOUREOPER is sent back to a client which has just successfully issued an OPER message and gained operator status.

392
RPL_USERS =
393
RPL_ENDOFUSERS =

204
RPL_TRACEUSER =
205
RPL_TRACESERVER =
206
RPL_TRACENEWTYPE =
208
RPL_TRACELOG =

The RPL_TRACE* are all returned by the server in response to the TRACE message. How many are returned is dependent on the the TRACE message and whether it was sent by an operator or not. There is no predefined order for which occurs first. Replies RPL_TRACEUNKNOWN, RPL_TRACECONNECTING and RPL_TRACEHANDSHAKE are all used for connections which have not been fully established and are either unknown, still attempting to connect or in the process of completing the ‘server handshake’. RPL_TRACELINK is sent by any server which handles a TRACE message and has to pass it on to another server. The list of RPL_TRACELINKs sent in response to a TRACE command traversing the IRC network should reflect the actual connectivity of the servers themselves along that path. RPL_TRACENEWTYPE is to be used for any connection which does not fit in the other categories but is being displayed anyway.

252
RPL_LUSERUNKNOWN =
253
RPL_LUSERCHANNELS =
254
RPL_LUSERME =

In processing an LUSERS message, the server sends a set of replies from RPL_LUSERCLIENT, RPL_LUSEROP, RPL_USERUNKNOWN, RPL_LUSERCHANNELS and RPL_LUSERME. When replying, a server must send back RPL_LUSERCLIENT and RPL_LUSERME. The other replies are only sent back if a non-zero count is found for them.

256
RPL_ADMINLOC1 =
257
RPL_ADMINLOC2 =
