Chapter 4. Red Hat Network Website
IP Addresses — Identifies the IP address ranges to be presented with this kickstart profile upon
request. Conflicts between IP address ranges will not be allowed unless one range is a subset of
another, in which case the kickstart associated with the smallest of the enclosing ranges will be
presented. Enter the range and click the Update IP ranges button.
At this point, the kickstart profile should be completely configured and ready for use. Refer to the
following pages for instructions on supplementing and aggregating kickstart profiles.
4.4.10.4. Profiles
The Profiles page lists the kickstart profiles created by your organization. Click a name to see the
Kickstart Details page. To enable inactive profiles, select the appropriate checkboxes and click the
Update Profiles.
4.4.10.5. IP Ranges
The IP Ranges page lists the IP addresses that have been associated with kickstart profiles created by
your organization. Click either the range or the profile name to access different tabs of the Kickstart
Details page.
4.4.10.6. Sessions
The Sessions page lists kickstart processes underway. Click the name of the system to obtain details
about the kickstart session.
4.4.10.7. GPG and SSL Keys
The GPG Keys SSL Certificates page lists keys and certificates available for inclusion in kickstart
profiles and provides a means to create new ones. This is especially important for customers of RHN
Satellite Server or RHN Proxy Server because systems being kickstarted by them will need to have
the server key imported into RHN and associated with the relevant kickstart profiles. Import it by
creating a new key here and then make the profile association in the GPG and SSL keys subtab of
the Kickstart Details page.
To develop a new key/certificate, click create new cryptokey in the upper-right corner of the page.
Enter a description, select the type, upload the file, and click the Update Key button. Note that a
unique description is required.
4.4.10.8. Distributions
The Distributions page enables you to identify custom installation trees that may be used for kick-
starting. (Satellite users should note that this does not display Red Hat distributions provided to them.
They can be found within the Distribution dropdown menu of the Kickstart Details page.) Before
creating a distribution, you will need to make an installation tree available, as described in the Kick-
start Installations chapter of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 System Administration Guide. This tree
will need to be located in a public directory on a Web server.
