InspIRCd v4 is still early in development!
If you use this branch you may experience crashes, weird behaviour, and unannounced breaking changes.
You probably want to use InspIRCd v3 instead.
The "sasl" Module (v4)

client capability.

target | Text | None | Required! A glob pattern for the server to route SASL requests to. This should usually be set to the name of your services server. |

Special Notes
The /AUTHENTICATE
