Talk:Default route

0.0.0.0 redirects here
0.0.0.0 used to redirect to loopback, but that article does not even mention 0.0.0.0. Someone who knows something about the 0.0.0.0 IP address and the default route/network should perhaps decide if the text from an earlier version of the 0.0.0.0 page (pasted below) is correct and should be incorporated into this article:

0.0.0.0 is an IP in the IPv4 scheme and may refer to:


 * localhost when given as a source address
 * "all interfaces" when given as the bind address for a listening internet socket
 * "invalid host" otherwise
