--------------------+---------------------
 Tor attempts to connect to unsupported IP formats/families addresses, such
 as exotic IPv4 representations:
 * hex:      0x40.0xAA.0x62.0x2A
 * octal:    00000000100.00000000252.00000000142.00000000052
 * base 256: 4294967360.4294967466.4294967394.4294967338
 Such requests are forwarded through a circuit and ultimately fail at the
 exit relay.
