Chuck,
I agree........how in the hell do you assign a loop int with the NIC
loopback
127.0.0.1?!?!?
:)
Rob H. NP, DP, blah,blah,blah..........
hhhhmmmm.......
MANAGER#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
MANAGER(config)#int loop 100
MANAGER(config-if)#ip addr 127.0.0.1 255.0.0.0
Not a valid host address - 127.0.0.1 <<============= my router still doesn't
like this
MANAGER(config-if)#
were you using a particular router model or particular IOS version when you
tried this?
Chuck

On Cisco routers you must explicitly assign a loopback interface. If you
want it to be 127.0.0.1 you must do like this:
conf t
int loopback1
ip address 127.0.0.1 255.255.0.0
Then you will be able to ping yourself at this address.
The automatic "well known" loopback is valid only for nic cards and other
devices where you wouldn't be able to setup a loopback by other means.

Hi Group
Have any one tried to ping the well known loopback address 127.0.0.1? I
tried but I could not. I could ping the other ip interfaces on the router
though.
Any explanation is welcomed.
Thanks
Lw
