 This section of the manual needs a minor revision.

 {{{
        VirtualAddrNetworkIPv6 [Address]/bits
            When Tor needs to assign a virtual (unused) address because of
 a
            MAPADDRESS command from the controller or the
 AutomapHostsOnResolve
            feature, Tor picks an unassigned address from this range.
            (Defaults: 127.192.0.0/10 and [FE80::]/10 respectively.)

            When providing proxy server service to a network of computers
 using
            a tool like dns-proxy-tor, change the IPv4 network to
            "10.192.0.0/10" or "172.16.0.0/12" and change the IPv6 network
 to
            "[FC00]/7".
 }}}

 `[FC00]/7` ''should'' read `[FC00::]/7`
