Ms loopback adaptor

Hello,

recently we have encountered some odd phenomenon
Some developers pc's in our organization who need using Ms loopback for
offline environment, the issue appearing when they connecting online
network
I get alerts from sniffer and network monitoring about bad traffic sourcing
from ip add 127.0.0.1 broadcasting to 255.255.255.0 from all pc's having
that MS Loopback even when disabling the adapter alerts keeps appearing only
after removing the adapter.
any idea about that and how to avoid this kind of network flood

Thanks in advanced.

Have them give the Loop Back Adapter a static TCP/IP Config that is a
different subnet that the "real" LAN, then see what happens.
