Hello,
What are all possible IP addresses for computers when there isn't a local network available?
I know of only two : 0.0.0.0 and 127.0.0.1.
Are there any other possibilities?
Thanks.

why would you need an ip if there is no network?
0.0.0.0 isnt possible as an ip and 127.0.0.1 is a loopback address you can use to query your own network card.
if there is no network you can use any ip you like.
several ranges are reserved for non internet use the most common of which is the 192.168.0.0 range
If no DHCP server can be located your computer will assign itself an APIPA IP. APIPA will then allocate addresses in the private range 169.254.0.1 to 169.254.255.254.
You do not understand IP addressing. All zeros indicates no IP address. 127.0.0.1 is the loopback address. When there isnt a network available, there is no IP address and it comes back zeroes. When you ping the loopback address, you are pinging your own computer. You have to have 3 things to get online: IP address, Subnet Mask, and default gateway.
