Howdy my friend,
Can you provide the link to the sample you are looking at?

Can I confirm that you want to send an HTTP request to an HTTP Server as opposed to an HTTP server running on the ESP32 sending a request somewhere else?

At the highest level, the networking subsystem at the low levels takes care of physical communication (WiFi or Ethernet) while the higher level protocols (TCP/IP) "just work" over those physical mediums. As such, any applications written to the higher level APIs such as "sockets" should "just work".

My guess would be that wifi vs internet is transparent to the http server code.

So the question would be... do you know how to start up the ethernet? Do you have a board with ethernet?

I don't have an ESP32 with ethernet and haven't seen one. But I'm guessing that if you can get the ethernet example in the IDF to start and give you an IP address, then any network code like the HTTP server will just automagically work.

Yes. You can use that example over Ethernet as well. You just need to enable Ethernet and init required configuration to enable it.

Then, You can get external connectivity like WiFi.

Great. Good to share sample code for others who want to test same like you have tested if not confidential.
