RHN / the Red Hat customer portal supports downloads via HTTPS; it does not support downloads via bittorrent. The download service does utilise a content delivery network (CDN) which means that the actual downloads come from a server that should be close to you network-wise and offer a reasonable download speed.

All,

 

 

A torrent would allow violations of the Service Level Agreement connected to the subscriptions.

RHEL is not the same product as CentOS.

 

 

Kind regards,
