Peter Garant asked:


For performing tests, it is necessary for a PC software developer or user to know how IP addresses work. With a thorough understanding of IP addresses like 127.0.0.1, debugging and studying PCs becomes more straightforward.

Behind all the names on the urls of Internet websites are a series of numbers called IP (Internet Protocol) addresses. IP stands for Internet Protocol, and constitute the primary network layer for use on the Web.

The 127.0.0.1 IP

This particular IP address, also called a local host, is the basis for which loopback network connections are processed. Loopback means going back, and that is what 127.0.0.1 does, because it is the address of your machine. Using telnet, ftp, or try in any way to get to 127.0.0.1, you will be transported back to the host machine, yours. However, it is only the initial three numbers (127) that are needed; use any number combination with 127 and the result will be the same.

A frequent joke among programmers is to get the greenhorn to connect to this IP address. However, in reality the IP address has serious functions.

Uses and Purpose

There are several practical uses for this IP address. The most common example would for a software developer or network systems administrator to try out new applications or experiment with unique set ups. This can also be used by programmers who design software that talks to each other through the computer.

This IP address is also used for beta testing a host of web applications, from Java applets, Active X controls to web browsers.

It usually begins with the client sending out a message to server, which would be possible only if the 127.0.0.1 address is used. The result would be, if a web browser were to relay the request, a return to the host page of the site

The other popular usage of the local host IP address are gaming servers, which are interconnected to local hosts. By using the local hosts, the process and the flow of information becomes more streamlined and efficient.

Because it functions as a loopback, this IP address cannot be used in any network element or node.

Testing the Loopback Properties of 127.0.0.1

You do not need to be a computer programmer to test the loopback function of this address. You can go to the command prompt of your operating system, and at the c:\ type the following: “ping 127.0.0.1″. After hitting the Enter key, you will get an answer like “Reply from 127.0.0.1…”.

If you type in “ping localhost” instead of the numbers, the result would be the same, as localhost and 127.0.0.1 are the same.

You can also try it on telnet: assuming that the computer assigned to you has the name “Dan” you will get the following result:

# telnet 127.0.0.1

Trying 127.0.0.1…

Connected to dan

Escape character is ‘^]’

Currently IPv4 is the standard in use on the Internet today. Aside from 127.0.0.1, other reserved addresses are 10.0.0.0/8 (for private networks), 169.254.0.0/16 (for link local),

Others are 192.88.99.0/24 (relays from IPv6 to UPv4), 255.255.255 (for broadcast), 224.0.0.0/4 for Multicasts (former Class D network), 240.0.0.0/4 for Class E Network, 192.0.2.0/24 for Documentation and example code and 198.18.0.0/15 for Network benchmark tests; 172.16.0.0/12 is also used for private networks.

Zephyr Development asked:


Organizations can realize huge savings by migrating SNA applications to IP using TN3270 and TN5250, eliminating the need for older, cost intensive SNA communication hardware and software.

IBM’s Systems Network Architecture (SNA) is a protocol stack that IBM developed to address networking deficiencies that were prevalent at the time of its creation in 1974. Several large hardware and software vendors provide SNA gateways that connect LAN-based PCs with IBM host systems running SNA (Systems Network Architecture) protocols, including IBM, Microsoft and Hewlett Packard.

In the 1990’s, fueled by a Gartner Group report stating that “users with SNA as their primary protocol will spend a total of 20% more than IP users on training staff, hardware and software purchases, and administration”, organizations began to migrate to Internet Protocol based networks.

TN3270 emulation is a communications standard that allows a remote terminal such as a Windows workstation to communicate with an IBM or IBM-compatible mainframe over IP. Similarly, TN5250 emulation uses the telnet protocol to create a TCP/IP connection to a remote host, typically an IBM AS/400 or iSeries server.

Now available on the market are non-invasive integration server solutions that allow customers to replace costly, aging SNA solutions with programmatic access to host-based applications at the data stream layer over an IP network. The host applications will traditionally be using 3270 (IBM Mainframe or zSeries) or 5250 (IBM AS/400 or iSeries) protocols and using LU types 0, 1, 2 or 3. A class library can be used to simply expose the information contained in these protocols to the customer’s application prior to the construction of the screen and print buffers. This should not be compared to “screen scraping” API’s such as HLLAPI or Object API offered by most terminal emulation vendors.

Typical customer applications requiring this interface are found in the banking and financial worlds, especially where the migration from SNA to IP networks has not yet been fully achieved. With the current state of the economy, some of the largest banks in the United States are now using this technology to eliminate thousands of servers and realize considerable savings in the process.

Many organizations continue to use TN3270E or TN5250E host printing, whether from an IBM zSeries mainframe or iSeries AS/400 midrange server. Using this type of programmatic IP-based integration solution, a developer can take a standard IBM 3287 LU 1 or LU 3 mainframe host printer session and programmatically output the information to multiple formats, including PDF, HTML, fax or file. This requirement can be found in banks, hotels, car rental agencies, hospitals, universities and state and local governments that continue to use host applications and need to output statements, receipts, invoices, reservations, class schedules, tax information, etc. in multiple output formats.

Using the LUA-RUI interface, existing LUA-RUI applications can be migrated from older, expensive SNA hardware and software solutions. Using the LUA RUI interface permits more control in customer applications by providing methods to handle exception requests, minimize LAN traffic through program design and recover from session failures.

Robert asked:


As a case study, on April 2007 google updates, I having about 10 websites. And got 2 of them are sitting in the same server and linked to each other. In general all my websites are increased in pagerank, except the two that are sitting in the same server.

The major issue that I identified is one of the two website, the homepage/index page is having pagerank lower than the inner page. I did a backlink checked and all backlinks are going to main page, not the inner page. Question is why the inner page got better pagerank instead?

We know that pagerank from page A flow to Page B when they are linked together. And the inner page pagerank must be come from index page, as there is no external source that link to inner page.

Finally I found out from online webmaster forums, that there are few discussion about this as well. And its concluded that the same IP address is the main caused for this. Some view it as google sandbox. But its not totally correct. Google sandbox is where your website is totally drop from google SERP.

Definitely you will either need to place your websites at different web server at different location, or get a class-c ip address for each of your websites. Hostgator is offering really good seo hosting as well, view here http://www.hostgatorreview.org/hostgator/hostgator-seo/ for more information on seo hosting and how class c ip can help you as well.
