根据rfc3330,环回块是 127.0.0.0/8:
127.0.0.0/8 - This block is assigned for use as the Internet host
loopback address. A datagram sent by a higher level protocol to an
address anywhere within this block should loop back inside the host.
This is ordinarily implemented using only 127.0.0.1/32 for loopback,
but no addresses within this block should ever appear on any network
anywhere [RFC1700, page 5].
这个块这么大是有原因的吗?有没有配置127.0.0.0/8以外的127.0.0.1/8以外的其他地址的场合?
