Comment:

 In the case of `__IP__`, I don't see any mentions of what is the expected
 format? I'm asking because for v4 it is easy but seems that for v6 we do
 require `[]` from what I can see in the code in terms of parsing.

 It's kind of obvious the brackets are needed for IPv6 because you can put
 a port with `:PORT` but could we make a quick note maybe at the start of
 the man page that every IPv6 address needs the brackets?
