Manage thousands of systems as easily as managing a single system.
One-click provisioning. Quick set-up. Flexible implementation. Simple
interface. Red Hat Network makes Linux deployable, scalable, and
manageable.
Red Hat Network is available in two different deployment models, based on your system management needs and size of deployment:
Hosted model
The customer's individual systems connect with RHN via the
Internet and exchange packages and information from the central RHN
servers.
Satellite model
All Red Hat Network functionality is on your network, allowing you much
greater functionality and customization. The Satellite server connects
with Red Hat over the public Internet only to download new content and
updates.This model also allows customers to take their Red Hat Network
solution completely off-line if desired.
Red Hat Network Proxy Server is also available as an
add-on for both Hosted and Satellite environments. The Proxy Server
caches packages to speed downloads. In a Hosted environment, this can
greatly reduce Internet bandwidth used. If you are using Satellite
server, adding Proxy servers to remote locations that have many systems
can improve scalability and performance.
