LAN Games[]
A local area network (LAN) game is a type of multiplayer game that allows other people in your local network (i.e. just the people connected to your router/switch) to join a Minecraft world.
Players over the internet cannot connect unless other workarounds (such as port forwarding or Hamachi) are set up.

Hosting a LAN server[]
To open an active single player world to LAN:
- Open the pause menu
- Click "Open to LAN"
- Optionally change the default game mode and/or whether players may use cheats
- Click "Start LAN World"
It is also possible to start a LAN world by the command line with .
After a world has been opened to LAN, a confirmation message will be sent in the chat, for example: "Local game hosted on port 50000" This port may need to be provided to joining players to help them connect.
On the technical side, a Minecraft client with an opened LAN game sends a UDP multicast to the local address 224.0.2.60:4445 every 1.5 seconds.
Other clients then listen for this multicast to show your game in their multiplayer menu.
