How to Activate Localhost (127.0.0.1) in your PC

Localhost is a hostname i.e. the name of the computer you are using. It is used to access the network services that are running on the host via its loopback network interface. Using the loopback interface bypasses any local network interface hardware.

1) loopback is always enabled by default
2) it's a whole loopback network (or interface) implemented in software. (127.x.x.x)

Hi, I'm using ZKAccess 5.0, fingerprint application which is installed and it was working absolutely fine. But from the past 2 months, it only opens the Login page. When I give the username and password, it says the error message as "The operation you select cannot be performed or this service is unavailable!"

There is also a "server controller program" installed along with this, and when I configure it, it is showing "8000 port unavailable"

I have gone to Inbound rule and added this Port 8000, now the Port is available in the server controller program.

But it is showing the error as "127.0.0.1 refused to connect".
Please help
