What hppends when ping 127.0.0.1 command executes?

Answer Posted / vikram

guys relax :

ping 127.0.0.1 is a loop back address. nither it checks modem
nor does it checks physical NIC card . it checks the IP
stack of the comp weather the ip STAck of the comp is
working fine.
eg :
when i ping 127.0.0.1 it checks the ip stack . it means tht
my windows is ok . 2) when i ping my ip address then it
means tht my nic is good if i gives replays. when i ping
gateway (router) and it gives replays it means communication
is happening with router...
