RHN is Red Hat Network which used to be the outlet for upgrading the now 
  Replaced RHL versions up to RHL 9. Since RHL was replaced with the 
Fedora/Redhat merge to the FEdora Project, updates are no longer 
available using RHN. The upgrades can be found on yum repository mirrors 
and also on some apt repository locations.

Regarding your question on the available update mirrors, there is a list 
of mirrors on the fedora.redhat.com website under the mirror location. 
You can try setting up one of the mirrors that give you the best service 
  and add the urls to your /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources file for up2date. 
(Note the RHN directory :-) )
For yum, you would need to setup /etc/yum.conf and also files in 
/etc/yum.repos.d/ directory to point to the repo mirrors that work best 
for you.

you might need to read the man and info pages for yum and up2date to get 
more detailed information. I find that the file for up2date is well 
commented and easy to distinguish what options are available for updating.
