ROS multiple machines through ethernet

I know it is possible to export ROS master to other ip addresses on your network, but what about if there is no IP. Is it possible if 2 computers are connected by ethernet to share a ROS master and publish/subscribe to shared topics without an a wifi connection. If so, how?

  1. an IP address is required for each host running ros node(s).

  2. looking at your tags, it's not recommended to use noetic with ubuntu 18; also you will not be able to use the binary apt repo with this combination.
