Important
Although this isn’t configurable, users should still make note that the port used by the Red Hat Update
Agent is 443 for SSL (HTTPS) and 80 for non-SSL (HTTP). By default,
up2date
uses SSL only. For
this reason, users should ensure their firewalls allow connections over port 443. To bypass SSL, in
/etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date
change the protocol for
serverURL
from
https
to
http
.
2.5. Registering with Activation Keys
In addition, to the standard
Red Hat Update Agent
interface,
up2date
offers a utility aimed at batch
processing the registration of systems: Activation Keys. Each unique key can be used to register Red
Hat Linux systems, entitle them to RHN Management, and subscribe them to specific channels and
system groups, all in one action.
Thus, channel and group subscriptions can be automated along with registration, thereby bypassing
entitlement and registration through either the
Red Hat Network Registration Client
or the
Red Hat
Update Agent
, both of which offer the Activation Keys utility
rhnreg_ks
as part of their packages.
