In {product-title} {product-version}, you require access to the internet to install and entitle your cluster. The Telemetry service, which runs by default to provide metrics about cluster health and the success of updates, also requires internet access. If your cluster is connected to the internet, Telemetry runs automatically, and your cluster is registered to the {cloud-redhat-com}. From there, you can allocate entitlements to your cluster.
You must have internet access to:
-
Access the {cloud-redhat-com} page to download the installation program and perform subscription management and entitlement. If the cluster has internet access and you do not disable Telemetry, that service automatically entitles your cluster. If the Telemetry service cannot entitle your cluster, you must manually entitle it on the Cluster registration page.
-
Access Quay.io to obtain the packages that are required to install your cluster.
-
Obtain the packages that are required to perform cluster updates.
