In the documentation it says: > [@](#): > > Subscription Management Tool (SMT) for SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 helps customers to manage their SUSE Linux Enterprise software updates while maintaining corporate firewall policy and regulatory compliance requirements. SMT is a package proxy system that is integrated with the Novell® Customer Center and provides key Novell Customer Center capabilities locally at the customer site. It provides a repository and registration target that is synchronized with the Novell Customer Center, thus maintaining all the capabilities of the Novell Customer Center while allowing a more secure centralized deployment. openSUSE is not the same as SUSE Linux Enterprise.

I have no idea what ‘openSuse SMT’ is, but SMT can be downloaded from the SUSE download page: [https://download.suse.com/index.jsp](https://download.suse.com/index.jsp) Choose ‘Subscription Management Tool’ from the drop-down, and then search. – Good luck.
