It is primarily used for blackhole routing - dropping all packets that match this route. This route is advertised to neighbors through dynamic routing protocols as any other static route. loopback interfaces have no dhcp settings, no forwarding, no mode, or dns settings. You can create a loopback interface from the CLI or Web-based manager.

This is available only when editing an interface with a type of VLAN.
