    What is a Loopback Address? - GeeksforGeeks

    A loopback address is a distinct reserved IP address range that starts from 127.0.0.0 and ends at 127.255.255.255 though 127.255.255.255 is the broadcast address for 127.0.0.0/8. The loopback addresses are built into the IP domain system, enabling devices to transmit and receive the data packets.

    How does a loopback interface work?
    When an application sends data to the loopback adapter’s IP address, the operating system intercepts the data and routes it directly to the loopback interface instead of transmitting it over a physical network connection. Upon receiving the data, the loopback interface processes it as if it were a network communication with an external device.

    What is a loopback adapter?
    A loopback adapter is a software component that allows a device to send and receive data within itself, emulating the behavior of a physical network interface. It creates a virtual network interface that enables communication between software applications on the same device as if they were communicating over a physical network.

    What IP address does a loopback interface use?
    The loopback interface uses an IP address like any other network interface. There’s a reserved IPv4 address range 127.0.0.0/8 for loopback interfaces. The loopback interface usually uses the first address 127.0.0.1 in this range. So let’s check the details of this interface using the ifconfig command:

    How many Loopback interfaces are there?
    Generally, all devices have at least one default loopback interface. Typically, the IP address 127.0.0.1 (or ::1 in IPv6 networks) is assigned to this interface. However, we can add multiple loopback interfaces and assign them to any IP address we desire. 3. Why Are Loopback Interfaces Useful in Routing Protocols?
