Huh? -b does work, and the default is now loopback. The only thing that is really different is that we have a -b for the application ports and a -bmanagement for management ports. > On Jan 23, 2015, at 11:18 AM, Phil Festoso <pfestoso(a)redhat.com&gt; wrote: > > Hi all, > > One of the changes from EAP 5 to 6 is that the -b option no longer "just works" and requires the admin to change the configuration to use <loopback-address/> instead of <inet-address/>. > > > Some of my customers were surprised by the change.

Well our configuration for all releases of AS7, EAP and WildFly specifies: <interface name="public"> <inet-address value="${jboss.bind.address:127.0.0.1}"/> </interface> So unless 127.0.0.1 was somehow bound to a non-loopback interface I don’t think that is even possible. > On Jan 23, 2015, at 11:28 AM, Tomaž Cerar <tomaz.cerar(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: > > Maybe this is a problem on some specific OS / JVM combination? > > As for most of the cases we know of it works. > > > On Fri, Jan 23, 2015 at 6:27 PM, Jason Greene <jason.greene(a)redhat.com&gt; wrote: > Huh? > > -b does work, and the default is now loopback.

This is true for RHEL 6.5 and 7 with oracle jdk 1.7_71, and does not work on my win 7 pc at home, so there might be something to the notion that this behavior is dependent on JDK/OS pairings.

Ah yes, originally we verified there was an interface available on the OS that was assigned that IP, but removed the validation code to make it more flexible for OSs which support dynamic loopback IPs (Linux). Windows does not support that concept which is why you saw it fail. > On Jan 23, 2015, at 11:49 AM, Phil Festoso <pfestoso(a)redhat.com&gt; wrote: > > More context is needed.
