Hi,
I'm Jarrett Lee and I work for a managed services company called CedarCrestone. We plan to create an internal-only mirror of EPEL for use within our organization. Per your documentation located at 'http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/Mirroring', I'm writing to inform you of this and ask a question.
Is the registration required or desired for private mirrors?
Also, our egress IP appears to be 216.83.163.132 for the system which will be performing the rsync, but this could change as we have at least three possible routes to the internet.
Please don't hesitate to let me know if there is any additional information requested of me or my organization.

You need to an entry for your mirror server in MirrorManager[1]. Please sync from a tier 1 or 2 mirror[2]. Just at the three possible IP addresses in MirrorManager as "Site-local Netblocks" and MirrorManager will redirect clients coming from one of those addresses to your private mirror. If there are any more questions do not hesitate to ask.

Thank you for the reply, Adrian. I just need a bit more clarification. We will not have any systems looking to the internet for mirrors; it will all be .repo files with a baseurl of our own internal mirror. Is the mirror manager registration still desired for this? If so, I don't mind adding it, but none of our systems will be hitting the internet at all, with the obvious exception of the one system which will be doing the rsync.
I figure most probably just fire up rsync pointed at one of your tier 1 or 2 mirrors and don't bother notifying you, but I'd like to know when someone hits me to download a large amount of data, so hopefully the notice is welcome.
Thanks, Jarrett
If you're installing custom yum .repo files, and not using MM, then you don't need to register in MM. However, you could register in MM, give those systems enough internet access to hit mirrors.fedoraproject.org, and avoid having to install custom .repo files.

Thank you very much Adrian and Matt! Looks like we'll just be mirroring and using .repo files. If we were mirroring more than just EPEL, we would likely register with Mirror Manager and ensure our users in the office who run Fedora on their laptops were hitting the local mirror, but we're only getting EPEL and it'll only be for our servers without internet access.
