What is the difference between 127.0.0.1 and localhost? When should I use one rather than the other?
The two terms are interchangeable. The term localhost is a designation meaning this computer. 127.0.0.1 is the loopback IP address also indicating this computer. The Configuration Wizard will populate 127.0.0.1 in the browsers and the manual configuration uses localhost. Either configuration is correct.
