Communicate Between Devices
The Mesh of Things provides a private overlay network that allows your devices to communicate with each other as if they were on your local network. This means you can build secure cross-device communication solutions. To reach a device on your network, you can use its private IPv4 or IPv6 address, which is exposed to other devices on your network but not to the internet. Both addresses are shown on the device detail page and in the device table on the Devices page.
First, ensure your device is part of a firewall group that allows communication with the device you want to reach. Then you can ping or curl the device using its private IP address:
bash
ping 100.64.0.1
curl http://100.64.0.1:8080/my-app
