It is a special IP through which the computer can communicate with itself. Any IP that starts with 127.0.0.0/8 is a loopback address. It can probably be used to diagnose connections, for example, you can create a web application and use loopback address to access it without connecting to a network. Or, you can type ping 127.0.0.1, which is generally used for connecting to yourself, and if it does not work, it means your network configurations are not setup properly.
