 Anonymous chat servers
 ======================
 
+## Connect to anonymous IRC server
+
+You can connect to IRC servers in I2P by using **Socks proxy**. By default, it listens at ``127.0.0.1:4447`` 
+(look at [configuration docs](../user-guide/configuration.md) for details).
+Configure your IRC client to use this Socks proxy and connect to I2P servers just like to any other servers.
+
+*Alternatively*, you may want to create **client I2P tunnel** to specific server.
+This way, i2pd will "bind" IRC server port on your computer and you will be able to connect to server without modifying any IRC client settings.
+
+To connect to IRC server at *irc.ilita.i2p:6667*, add this to ~/.i2pd/tunnels.conf:
+
+    [IRC2]
+    type = client
+    address = 127.0.0.1
+    port = 6669 
+    destination = walker.i2p
+    destinationport = 6667
+    #keys = walker-keys.dat
+
+Restart i2pd, then connect to irc://127.0.0.1:6669 with your IRC client.

 ## Running anonymous IRC server
 
 1) Run your IRC server software and find out which host:port it uses (for example, 127.0.0.1:5555).
 
-    For small private IRC servers you can use [miniircd](https://github.com/jrosdahl/miniircd), for large public networks [UnreadIRCd](https://www.unrealircd.org/).

 2) Configure i2pd to create IRC server tunnel.
 
-    Simplest case, if your server does not support WebIRC, add this to ~/.i2pd/tunnels.conf:

 3) Restart i2pd.
 
 4) Find b32 destination of your anonymous IRC server.
 
-    Go to webconsole -> [I2P tunnels page](http://127.0.0.1:7070/?page=i2p_tunnels). Look for Sever tunnels and you will see address like \<long random string\>.b32.i2p next to anon-chatserver.
-
-    Clients will use this address to connect to your server anonymously.
