Accessing the Internal Registry from ARO
This content is authored by Red Hat experts, but has not yet been tested on every supported configuration. This guide has been validated on OpenShift 4.20. Operator CRD names, API versions, and console paths may differ on other versions.

By default, access to the registry is limited to the cluster ( by design ) but can be extended to usage outside of the cluster.
