I am also getting same problem.
not understanding how to open or access same node red server dashboard on different device connected to same network.

MACHINE1: Run Node-red. Access it via http://localhost:1880
MACHINE2 Open browser. Enter http://IP_OF_MACHINE1:1880

where IP_OF_MACHINE1 == the IP address of where node-red is running.

As it WEB - the simple answer is "of course". You just need the URL.

However, if the machine where Node-RED runs is firewalled then you gotta open port 1880 on that machine

thank you for quick reply.. i will try this and let you know.

thank you its seems easy as you say.
can you please explain how open port 1880 on rasberry Pi 3.

i tried but didn't work.
firewall is off in both MACHINE.

If you are running standard Raspbian and have not activated a firewall then it will already be open.

What are you entering in the browser?
What operating systems are the two machines running.

windows 7 OS in both machine.
i entered in machine2 : http://IP of machine (node-red running):1880

Is that exactly what you entered or did you put an actual ip address in? If so what is that address? What did you then see in the browser?

@Colin it is working now.
there was proxy settings in web browser.
after set at automatic node-red is working on another machine.
thank you very much for your help.

@Colin Run node-red in web browser of other computer connected in LAN is successfully worked.
Now i have query as below pl guide for the same.

Two machines are not connected in LAN but both machine have internet connectivity.
one machine has node-red installed but second machine has not.
Is it possible to run node-red dash board in second machine via internet?

Doing this safely and securely is not trivial.

Please see https://github.com/node-red/cookbook.nodered.org/wiki/How-to-safely-expose-Node-RED-to-the-Internet

this Works perfectly just you have to have Same Internet service for all devices connected to it.

Thank you. I could access Node Red UI using my phone with port 1880 (Since I was on a LAN )

sudo ufw allow 1880

Run that command in your raspberry pi terminal in case your pi's firewall is enabled
