- You can state multiple listen addresses, in the case that you are
- part of several networks or subnets.
+     IPv6 is supported since Tor version 0.2.8.x or newer. To activate it add
+     the following two entries into your torrc file:
      </p>
      <pre>
-   SocksListenAddress 192.168.x.x:9100 #eth0
-   SocksListenAddress 10.x.x.x:9100 #eth1
+   ClientUseIPv4 0
+   ClientUseIPv6 1
      </pre>
      <p>
- After this, your clients on their respective networks/subnets would specify
- a socks proxy with the address and port you specified SocksListenAddress
- to be.
