Figure 38. Registering Remote Repositories
You must congure the following points before you register remote repositories:
• WDM always names the rst Repository Master. Any additional Remote Repositories that you install can be named anything other than
Master.
• If you do not install multiple Remote Repositories, then WDM uses the Master Repository for all subnets.
• If you deployed WDM components separately, then it is recommended that you install the Master Repository on a machine on the same
subnet as where you installed the other WDM components.
Before you register, make sure that you have successfully installed the following:
• WDM Enterprise Edition on your network.
• Any Remote Repositories, so that you can connect to them.

1 In the WDM Console, expand System.
