P2 Badge Show a non-default bind address in custom example

The new “Specify a custom address” example uses 127.0.0.1, which is the default bind value, so readers following this section are not actually configuring a custom address. In practice this is misleading for users trying to expose the server beyond localhost (the CLI help describes 127.0.0.1 as default and suggests 0.0.0.0 for local-network access), so this section should demonstrate a genuinely non-default bind target.

Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.
