Hello everyone,  
I’m already using wandb sweeps on my computer.  
To launch more resource-intensive training sessions, I got access to a cluster whose GPU nodes have no internet access.  
I wanted to know if it was possible to use sweeps without any internet access: I tested the solution proposed in the local-controller page using the CLI but it didn’t work.  
Would you have a way to make sweeps work without any internet access and just a synchronization after training?  
Thank you in advance for your help,
