SSH Tunnels to access TensorBoard

When you are accessing TensorBoard across networks (from a VPN for example), it might be necessary to create an SSH tunnel to access the TensorBoard web user interface.

To create an SSH tunnel from the command line, run:

ssh -L 6006:127.0.0.1:6006 <id>@<server>

If you are using PuTTY, replace ssh with PuTTY in the command. This usage creates an ssh tunnel on port 6006 from your local system to port 6006 on the server that you connected to with ssh. This tunnel remains open while the ssh connection is active.

Then, from your browser you can access TensorBoard with the URL:

http://localhost:6006
