Start the Sage command line interface and issue this command

notebook(interface="<URL-or-IP-address>", secure=True)

For more information about fine tuning options to the command
notebook(), issue the command

notebook?

to get documentation on that particular command. If you want more
documentation, the command

notebook??

would give you both the docstring as well as the source code of the command.

Depending on your system and the version of Sage you use, the command

notebook(interface="<URL-or-IP-address>", secure=True)

would take a while to successfully start a network accessible notebook
interface. This is due to the software used for generating RSA private
keys. If your system has openssl and you use Sage 4.3.2 or 4.3.3, you
don't have to wait long for the private key generation process to
finish. This is because openssl is very fast at such cryptographic
tasks. However, if your system don't have openssl, then the command

notebook(interface="<URL-or-IP-address>", secure=True)

would default to using certtool (or something similar), which takes
ages to generate RSA private keys.
