Do you mean for local server? If yes, it's actually very easy. Assuming you are using Windows.
- Just set a Wi-Fi or a router or any acces point.
- Connect both devices into same place.
- Choose a device to be the server.
- Open Minetest.
- Create a world for your server.
- Next, there are two options:
- By command line (no graphics at all, just text)
- Open your Minetest folder.
- Enter bin directory.
- Right-click on empty space.
- Click "Open command window here".
- Type "minetest --server --worldname <worldname>" (without quotes) then press Enter.
- By Minetest Main Menu (you also play there)
- Open "Server" tab.
- Select your world.
- Uncheck "Public" (because you just want to create a local server.
- Enter username and password. (auto-register if user doesn't exist)
- Start Game.
- Once your server has run, you can connect to your server.
- If you were choosing to create server by Minetest Main Menu, you can play there. If not, open Minetest and go to "Client" tab. Enter 127.0.0.1 as address and 30000 as port.
- Click Start, type "cmd" then press Enter.
- Type "ipconfig /all", then press Enter.
- Find for "IP Address" for your connection. That's your IP Address for your server.
- For other devices which want to connect:
- Open Minetest.
- Go to "Client" tab.
- Enter your server IP Address as address and 30000 as port.
- Enter username and password. (auto-register if user doesn't exist)
- Click "Connect".
Because you don't specify your device specification, so I assume you're using Windows.
Hope it helps! Correct me if I'm wrong.
