How can I use Java sockets to connect devices over ethenet?

I'm currently trying to use the following 2 scripts to connect 2 devices via ethenet.

https://github.com/astub/SimpleSocket-Example/blob/master/SOK_1_SERVER.java

https://github.com/astub/SimpleSocket-Example/blob/master/SOK_1_CLIENT.java

Currently this only works when both scripts are run on the same machine. How can I adapt these scripts so that this works over an ethenet connection?
