<span style=" font-size:11pt;font-family:IBM Plex Sans">Hello all,</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:11pt;font-family:IBM Plex Sans">I've been trying
to get this working for some time and I feat I'm just not understanding
something... This might be a n00b problem!</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:11pt;font-family:IBM Plex Sans">I have a group
of nodes in a few different wireless networks. Because they have an IP
address for each NIC I wanted to give them a unique IP address that could
be routed across all the networks.</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:11pt;font-family:IBM Plex Sans">So I added
an IP address to the lo device:</span>

<br><span style=" font-size:11pt;font-family:IBM Plex Sans">but this seems
to have stopped it working, as far as I can tell it's using 127.0.0.1 as
its router_id now instead of the id of a NIC.  </span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:11pt;font-family:IBM Plex Sans">What does the

addresses configured on loopback?</span>
