127.0.0.1 represents the current computer itself, the maximum IP range that can be used is (1-223)
For example, 1.255.255.255 represents the broadcast address of the current network; 1.0.0.0 represents the network itself and cannot be assigned
Broadcast address is an address that is designed to be sent to all workstations in the network at the same time
For example, 1.0.0.1 and 2.0.0.1 are not the same network segment, to communicate requires a router; communicate within the same network using a switch is OK
