Cloudflare Mesh provides private, encrypted networking between services and devices.
Cloudflare Mesh connects servers, laptops, phones, and services over private IP addresses through Cloudflare's network. Mesh nodes use the Cloudflare One Client to establish bidirectional TCP, UDP, and ICMP connectivity without VPNs or bastion hosts.
The product applies Gateway network policies, device posture checks, and access rules to Mesh traffic. It supports private connectivity between devices and infrastructure, including networks reached from Workers through VPC Network bindings.
