I am attempting to connect to the localhost of the machine from which I am booting a VS Android Emulator. I am able to successfully connect to the IIS Server when the Android version is Kitkat. However, I fail to connect when the VS Android Version is Lollipop or Marshmallow. The way I am connecting to the localhost is typing http://169.254.80.80 in the browser of the Emulator. As per http://developer.android.com/tools/devices/emulator.html#networkaddresses I should be able to connect to localhost using the IP address 10.0.2.2. However, this IP address doesn't seem to work for me.

🎉 Each instance of the Android emulator runs behind a virtual router/firewall. You can find a list of IP addresses used in the network address space here. Among these IP addresses, you will find a special alias to your host computer's loopback interface (aka localhost).
In [techie] talk " A localhost is a Internet Protocol loopback device which can be used by TCP/IP applications to talk to themselves." The default internal loop IP for the localhost is usually 127.0. 0.1 . This IP is different from the IP that identifies the computer on the network.
