How to setup a notebook which can be access using public IP

Hello,

I am trying to setup a google cloud compute engine to host my Jupiter notebook which I hope I can access it remotely and share with my professor for my Thesis purposes.

I tried to follow some guides over the internet to setup the server with the following configurations:

c = get_config()
c.IPKernelApp.pylab = 'inline'
c.NotebookApp.allow_remote_access = True
c.NotebookApp.allow_origin = '\*'
c.NotebookApp.ip = '\*'
c.NotebookApp.open_browser = False
c.NotebookApp.password = u'sha1:6b60aebca3e7:19373356db79fa217e7c945b55594260f55713cb'
c.NotebookApp.port = 8888

however, the setting seems not working cause I keep receiving a message that the notebook can be access only using http://(jupyter or 127.0.0.1):8888/

can anyone here help me to figure out where I get wrong and how can I fix the issue?

I am using notebook version 5.6.0 (I tried 5.7.0 but it has an issue with c.NotebookApp.ip = '*')

Thank you and good day

Start with the shown NotebookApp settings and the notebook server's access URL; verify how notebook 5.6.0 interprets c.NotebookApp.ip, allow_remote_access, and port 8888. Done means the server can be accessed through the Google Cloud Compute Engine public IP rather than only localhost.
