Test Internet Connection

After having congured a network connection, you can test it. For this purpose, YaST

establishes a connection to the openSUSE server and downloads the latest release notes.

Read them at the end of the installation process. A successful test is also a prerequisite

for the automatic addition of the default repositories and for updating online.

If you have multiple network interfaces, verify that the desired card is used to connect

to the Internet. If not, click Change Device.

To start the test, select Yes, Test Connection to the Internet and click Next. In the fol-

lowing dialog, view the progress of the test and the results. Detailed information about

the test process is available via View Logs. If the test fails, click Back to return to the

network conguration to correct your entries.

Proceed with Next. If the test was successful, the ofcial software repositories for

openSUSE and the update repository will be congured. Downloading the repository

data for the rst time may take some time.

If you do not want to test the connection at this point, select No, Skip This Test then

Next. This also skips downloading the release notes, and updating online. These steps

can be performed any time after the system has been initially congured.

1.14.2.3 Online Update

If an Internet connection has been established, and updates are available, select whether

to perform a YaST online update. If there are any patched packages available on the

servers, download and install them now to x known bugs or security issues. For detailed

instructions see Chapter 6, YaST Online Update (↑Start-Up). Directives on how to

perform an online update in the installed system are available at Section “Keeping the

System Up-to-date” (Chapter 5, Installing or Removing Software, ↑Start-Up) or Chap-

ter 6, YaST Online Update (↑Start-Up). This step is skipped if no updates are available

or no Internet connection has been established. Patches xing security issues and rec-

ommended patches applying to your installation are automatically preselected. Click

Accept to install them and Next to proceed with the system conguration.
