It's useful when you want the `lo` interface to have a custom
[Address] or two.
Routers often have an address assigned that's supposed to be
independent from any "physical" interface – on Linux it could be
assigned to a Type=dummy interface or to an empty bridge, but just as
frequently it's assigned to `lo`. (It's even called a "loopback
address".)
Hi Mantas, thanks for your reply! Yes, this seems to be the kind of
response I was looking for. So it indeed seems that in the vast
majority of desktop systems (and servers) it is safe to leave the lo
interface as unmanaged by systemd-network.
Thanks again for clearing this up for me :)
