Currently I have no way of knowing if the IRCd supports SASL or not without configuring SASL and reconnecting. I asked on #IRCv3 how would I go with knowing that and the response was CAP LS and talking about bouncers it's ZNC's responsibility to inform the user on supported caps.

You can use *raw and type cap ls in it.

as I said on IRC:

2015-02-20 06:01:44+0200 < Mikaela> I am not sure was it *raw or *send_raw that is admin-only, but *raw can have difficult to read output especially when you are on active network on multiple channels that talk all the time
