Question too vague.

Can you ask that again, using more words? It's not really clear what you want to do.

127.0.0.1 is used for convenience. You can give anything in the 127.n.n.n range and it should work the same.

I just want to run a test program from my localhost. I always get 127.0.0.1 when i try by $_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP'] or $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] or $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'] locally. How can i assign same network IP to my server so that i would be able to access something like 86..
