unchecked the IPv4 protocol but ping 127.0.0.1 still working
HI I have a windows 2008 R2 Server. There is only one interface on the box. I disabled the IPv4 stack, but the 127.0.0.1 still could ping success. Is it a spec? or it is just a temp state?

Hi chrischris1, You uncheck IPv4 protocol in your network adapter, means disabled IPv4 in this interface. Not disabled OS loopback interface, you could run “netsh interface IPv4 show interfaces” to see loopback interface connected. Ping 127.0.0.1 loopback interface to verify TCP/IP installed http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc940095.aspx You could run “netsh interface IPv4 uninstall” , reboot server to disabled all IPv4 interface. Command “netsh interface IPv4 install” to enable IPv4 interface.Regards, Rick Tan
