After configuring an Internet connection, you can test it. For this purpose, YaST estab-
lishes a connection to the SUSE Linux Enterprise server and downloads the latest release
notes. Read them at the end of the installation.
To start the test, select Yes, Test Connection to the Internet and click Next. In the next
dialog, view the progress of the test and the results. If the test fails, click Back to return
in the previous dialog and correct the configuration or skip the test. If you need more
information about the test process, click View Logs.
If you do not want to test the connection at this point, select No, Skip This Test then
Next. This also skips downloading release notes, configuring the customer center, and
updating online.
If you have multiple network interfaces in your system, verify that the the desired card
is used to connect to the Internet. To do so, click Change device.
3.11.4 Customer Center
To get technical support and product updates, first register and activate your product.
Novell Customer Center Configuration provides assistance for doing so.
If you are offline or want to skip this step, select Configure Later. This also skips SUSE
Linux Enterprise online update.
In Include for Convenience, select whether to obtain some of the necessary information
from your system. This simplifies the registration process. To keep your installation
sources valid, select Regularly Synchronize with Customer Center. This option checks
your installation sources and adds new available sources or removes obsolete sources.
It does not touch manually added sources. Additionally, it resends your hardware infor-
mation if Hardware Information is activated, which can make new hardware-specific
sources available. To see what is required to register your system or what happens with
your data, use Details.
