I'm trying to use an RMT server in an air-gapped environment. The idea is to have an RMT instance with internet access to sync repositories locally. However, I'm facing an issue with SLES 15 using a PAYG license. All the repositories I want to sync as custom are using the libzypp plugin, and they all start with plugin:/susecloud.

According to the documentation here, I should be able to use rmt-cli repos custom add with the repo URL in the same way zypper uses the zypper plugin.

Can you confirm if the version I'm using supports this functionality?
