@cambridgeport90 Oh in your use case, or more even in a more general use cases, how are localhost networks used?

I have a rough idea, but it also comes from a "I didn't go to college, and had to teach myself everything" context.

@LWFlouisa localhost just means the local server. Whichever one your software is actually running from. That's one of the ways in which you can get to it.
