Abstract
Systems and methods configuring a process that uses IPv4 communication without associating the IPv4 process with an IP loopback address are disclosed. Embodiments may include receiving a message to configure an IPv4 process. Embodiments may also include determining if a configuration parameter associated with the received message is set to indicate that one or more default IP loopback addresses are to be used as IP loopback addresses to associate with the IPv4 process. Embodiments may further include completing the configuration of the IPv4 process without associating an IP loopback address with the IPv4 process when the configuration parameter is determined to not be set to indicate that one or more default IP loopback addresses are to be used as IP loopback addresses to associate with the IPv4 process.
