      It’s a Class A address, reserved for loopback devices. While not any sort of default - yes, it could be used as home :)

    This reminds me of the tale of the coder tasked to write an input validator for IPv4 addresses. Poor bastard.

    PSA: Don’t zero-pad your IPv4 octets. Decimal is for simpletons.
