Loopback Interfaces
Adding an IP Address to a Loopback Interface
You might want to assign an address to the loopback interface that is the same
as the OSPF router ID, or is the termination point of a BGP session. This
allows firewall adjacencies to stay up even if the outbound interface is down.
Note
The loopback interface always has a logical interface created and
enabled.
