Red Hat Network (RHN) is a systems management platform that makes Linux deployable, scalable, and manageable. Red Hat Network provides administrators with the tools to efficiently manage their systems lowering per-system, deployment, and management costs. Red Hat Network offers superior security by having a single centralized tool, secure connection policies for remote administration, and secure content. Use Red Hat Network to ensure security fixes and configuration files are applied across your environment consistently.

"Our use of Satellite has grown with us and we're pleased with how much time it has saved us and how efficient it has made our administrators. I'd recommend setting up RHN Satellite as soon as possible for others who want to go down that road; it pays off very quickly"
