I'm writing this as a result of a bug [1] filed by a Debian user that the
cidr_table man page wasn't completely clear about acceptable notation for
IPv6. I find it's clear enough myself, but in light of the user confusion I
do think including an IPv6 address in the example might help.
Please see the attached trivial patch for consideration. It uses the IETF
sanctioned example IPv6 addresses, because why not?
