5 Red Hat Network Web Application
You can use the Red Hat Network Web Application to manage up to five Red Hat
Linux systems simultaneously. The Red Hat Network Web Application runs in a
Web browser such as Netscape, differing from the Red Hat Update Agent which runs
as a standalone application.
Red Hat Network Web Application
features include:
1. The
Red Hat Network Web Application
can download a list of selected pack-
ages with one mouse click. After browsing the individual systems in your net-
work and choosing which packages to install on each of them, you can go to your
Download List
page and download packages for your systems at one time. This
allows you to choose your updates without waiting for each package to download
for each system. It also allows you to download each package once instead of
downloading the same package multiple times for various systems.
2. The
Search Errata
tab allows you to generate custom reports detailing the health
and security of your Network Group.
3. System administrators can quickly determine if their systems require updating
and what type of updates are available by viewing the System Overview page.
4. The
Red Hat Network Web Application
will only display errata relevant to your
network.
