That'll teach me for trying to be smart and dropping in 127.0.0.1 :P *yawns* getting images from xckd, and overlaying what a lame idea. It's not even a complex diagram that requires overlaying.
Was the red dot on the edge of the "loopback" square? If so, you really belong in the square next door, and it's just because of a charting inaccuracy. (The map is hand-drawn, so the dot placement is a little rough -- the faint blue circle shows my guess of the error area.)The other way to tell is the label: you belong in the square marked by that first number before the dot. So you should be in the 127 square only if the address in brackets begins with 127, as in "You (127.0.0.1)". But that shouldn't happen, because addresses beginning with 127 are reserved for loopback, i.e. connecting back to your own computer.-- Hourann (maker of the site)
