4.3.4. Installing Behind a HTTP Proxy: Pre-Configuration (Optional)
Note
This section only applies to networks behind a HTTP proxy.
The registration of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux host requires communication between itself and the Red Hat Content Delivery Network. If there is an HTTP proxy between these two, Subscription Manager must be configured with the proxy server's details, and credentials.
Edit the configuration file
/etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf, and edit the following lines, adding details of the HTTP proxy, and credentials.
proxy_hostname = proxy_hostname proxy_port = proxy_port proxy_user = proxy_user proxy_password = proxy_password
