IP地址0.0.0.0究竟是什么？与127.0.0.1有什么区别？

0.0.0.0:

From RFC1122, Section 3.1.2.3:

We now summarize the important special cases for Class A, B, and C IP addresses, using the following notation for an IP address:

            { ,  }

        or
            { , ,  }

...

          (a)  { 0, 0 }

             This host on this network.  MUST NOT be sent, except as
             a source address as part of an initialization procedure
             by which the host learns its own IP address.

Just that, "this host on this network"... as Lee B's answer states this translates to all available IP addresses on your host. Hosting a service on 0.0.0.0 will automatically host that service on every addressable interface.

127.0.0.1:

From RFC5735:

127.0.0.0/8 - This block is assigned for use as the Internet host loopback address. A datagram sent by a higher-level protocol to an address anywhere within this block loops back inside the host. This is ordinarily implemented using only 127.0.0.1/32 for loopback. As described in [RFC1122], Section 3.2.1.3, addresses within the entire 127.0.0.0/8 block do not legitimately appear on any network anywhere.

The difference between 0.0.0.0 and the loopback address 127.0.0.1 is that the loopback address is designed to allow a fully functioning IP interface within the host itself, regardless of what the rest of the networking setup, if any, looks like. Any traffic sent to the loopback device is immediately received on it. It's not so much that the loopback network "refers" to your own host... it's more of like you have a mini network segment in your host that devices, processes and sockets and can open and connect to.

 

The IP address 0.0.0.0 can have very different meanings, depending on where it's used.

• It's not a valid address to be given to an actual network interface, along with any other address in the 0.0.0.0/8 subnet (i.e. any address starting with 0.).
• It can't be used as the source address on any IP packet, unless this happens when a computer still doesn't know its own IP address and it's trying to acquire one (classic example: DHCP).
• If used in a routing table, it identifies the default gateway; a route to 0.0.0.0 is the default one, i.e. the one used when there is not any more specific route available to a destination address.
• Lastly, when seen in the output of the netstat command (which is what you asked for), it means that a given socket is listening on all the available IP addresses the computer has; when a computer has more than one IP address, a socket can be bound only to a specific address and port pair, or to a port and all addresses; if you see an IP address there, it means that socket is listening only on that port and that specific address; if you see 0.0.0.0, it means it's listening on that port on all addresses of the machine, including the loopback one (127.0.0.1).
