It should contain at least 127.0.0.1 localhost. 127.0.0.1 is an IP address called the "loopback" because it refers to the local computer only. The loopback address gives developers a way to test web software without being physically connected to a network. This prevents errors in network hardware or software from obscuring test results. The loopback address can be used to stop web ads from displaying.
