Those should appear in the latest version of man pages, but have been missing.

rightsubnet=vhost:%no,%priv

virtual_private=%v4:10.0.0.0/8,%v4:192.268.0.0/16,%4:172.16.0.0/12,%v4:!192.168.1.0/24

Thios example would be if your own server subnet is "192.168.1.0/24". It is excluded
from virtual_private (to prevent clashes with that ip range behind a NAT device)
