ESP-MESH networking using Ethernet on a local network?

[akhileshthorat]

Hello folks,
I'm curious to know whether ESP-MESH networking is possible on 100's of ESP-32 connected through Ethernet on a local network(no wlan here). just like a private network, web servers on each node and addressable through IP address.

What would it do that a standard Ethernet network doesn't already do?

I am confused whether a network of ESP's connected through Ethernet can form a private secure network(no internet connection)
Accessible through a centralized PC or router

Hi akhileshthorat，

ESP-MESH can form a private local network via wifi internally, and searching the node by its mac address through a PC or router.
