Hi,

I read that IP address ranges other than 2.xxx.xxx.xxx may be allowed for Artnet in future releases. I also wonder if the 127.xxx.xxx.xxx loopback address will be allowed? I find that ever since I can remember I have been unable to enter 127 into the IP address field.

For example, although I have been able to use the IP address of the PC given to the computer by the router, e.g., 192.0.0.2. For internal purposes, wouldn't it be simpler to use the loopback address of 127.0.0.1? I never understood that. Is there an explanation?

Thanks.
