Configure analysis environment settings by box

Available in VPC

When the Data Box Frame is created, the administrator can forward the box information created in the Data Box Frame to the analyst. In order to control the arbitrary export of data to be analyzed, you can set whether or not to allow external communication for each analyst space and to set the view of the data to be analyzed.

1. Configure and share access information

After external communication is enabled for the box in use, the analyst must configure the analysis environment on the Connect Server and Ncloud TensorFlow Server using the provided connection information. After accessing each box, configure the analysis environment following the box access guide. Afterwards, notify the Data Box Frame manager that the environment setting has been completed and ask to view the data.
