Cloudflare Mesh: Post-Quantum Encrypted Networking

Cloudflare Mesh is now available, enabling private encrypted networking between services and devices over TCP, UDP, and ICMP with post-quantum cryptography. WARP Connector has been renamed to Mesh, with increased node limits (now 50 per account) and a new dashboard for management and diagnostics.

Cloudflare Mesh is now available (blog post ↗). Mesh connects your services and devices with post-quantum encrypted networking, allowing you to route traffic privately between servers, laptops, and phones over TCP, UDP, and ICMP.

What Cloudflare Mesh does

  • Assigns a private Mesh IP to every enrolled device and node.
  • Enables any participant to reach any other participant by IP — including client-to-client, without deploying any infrastructure.
  • Supports CIDR routes for subnet routing through Mesh nodes.
  • Supports high availability with active-passive replicas for nodes with routes.
  • All traffic flows through Cloudflare, so Gateway network policies, device posture checks, and access rules apply to every connection.

What changed

  • WARP Connector is now Cloudflare Mesh. Existing WARP Connectors are now called mesh nodes. All existing deployments continue to work — no migration required.
  • Peer-to-peer connectivity is now called Mesh connectivity and is part of the Cloudflare Mesh documentation.
  • Mesh node limit increased from 10 to 50 per account.
  • New dashboard experience ↗ at Networking > Mesh with an interactive network map, node management, route configuration, diagnostics, and a setup wizard.
