Overview

An Entitlement Pool from which active subscriptions can be drawn.

This is also commonly called a subscription, RPM Pool or (incorrectly) a repository but properly refers to the rights to a view of repositories created inside the server.

Example: an entitlement to access the EPEL repositories on the current server.
