That little trick is used so that contacts to the loopback, at
127.0.0.0/8, can be set to a distinct IP address and ensure the trafic
is recorded separately, even though coming in on the loopback address.
It can be very handy for segregating SSH and webshost traffic
separately from localhost traffic.
