linux dsu and local yum repository

Hello All, for any Redhat linux server unable to reach internet.

Is it possible to use dsu when offline?

I replicated dell dependent and independednt repositories on local server and I'm running dsu command. But dsu always goes to check internet, not local repos with BIOS and other firmwares:

$ yum repolist

dell-system-update_dependent

dell-system-update_independent

$ dsu -i

Allows users to specify the type of source update.
1. OSNATIVE for YUM or any operating system default repository

# dsu --source-type=OSNATIVE
