Access the Kubeflow dashboard

Once you have deployed Kubeflow, it is time to access the Kubeflow dashboard.

1. Get authentication credentials

To display your access credentials, run the following commands:

juju config dex-auth static-username
juju config dex-auth static-password

Empty values here indicate that static username/password authentication is disabled.
If you wish to set these values, add the relevant string to the end of the command, e.g.

juju config dex-auth static-username=admin
juju config dex-auth static-password=AxWiJjk2hu4fFga7

2. Find the IP address of the Kubeflow dashboard

To find the IP address of the Kubeflow dashboard for your deployment run:

kubectl get services -n kubeflow

where kubeflow is the name you gave to your Juju model, and hence the namespace of your Kubeflow deployment.

3. Access the dashboard

For local Kubeflow deployments, such as in a workstation, you can simply access the link found in the previous step, appending nip.io, for example: http://10.64.140.43.nip.io.

However, for remote deployments, or running on a virtual machine, creating a SOCKS proxy is required to access the dashboard. This can be done as follows:

1. Logout from the current session with the exit command

2. Re-establish connection to the machine using ssh with SOCKS proxy enabled through the -D 9999 parameter. As in the example below:

   ssh -D 9999 ubuntu@<machine_public_ip>
   

3. On your computer, go to Settings > Network > Network Proxy, and enable SOCKS proxy pointing to: 127.0.0.1:9999

4. On a new browser window, access the link given in the previous step, appended by .nip.io, for example: http://10.64.140.43.nip.io
