Chapter 4. Registering a RHEL system with a graphical user interface
Users who prefer a web experience, or who want to register their system during installation, can use a graphical user interface (GUI) to complete the registration process. Registration GUIs are available in the Anaconda Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) installer, in the RHEL web console, and in the Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console.
There are also web-based registration assistants available to guide you through the best registration process for your system.
