According to:
https://superuser.com/questions/1220409/irc-how-to-register-on-freenode-using-hexchat-when-i-get-disconnected-immediat
there's a blacklist of source address ranges from which SASL auth/e is
required.....

I tried just "/connect chat.freenode.net

and then "/msg nickserv ..." a few times. I always got dumped and it
said "You need to identify via SASL to use this server". Something like
that.
If I don't connect first, then I just get "Not connected to server" when
I try to /msg nickserv

It's been a while since I used irssi personally (switched to weechat
some 5-6 years ago), but it should only have rejected your ability
to auto-join OpenStack official IRC channels until you
registered/identified and not prevented you from connecting to
Freenode. You only need to be in a server buffer and connected to be
able to `/msg nickserv ...` but don't need to be in any channels at
all so shouldn't be a chicken-and-egg scenario.
