If you are in an air gapped environment you have to setup an images.maas.io mirror and point your MAAS to it.

Please note that this forum is best effort and if you need enterprise support with guaranteed response time, support and confidentiality you can engage with Canonical for a quote

In my opinion, it is almost impossible to use MAAS with no Internet access

  • MAAS itself performs regular system image synchronisation with images.maas.io. So you need a full mirror of it in your LAN.
  • Machine commission and deployment need Internet access to perform apt update and apt install. Well, you can deploy a full mirror of the Ubuntu repo by using a tool such as aptly, but it may take days and weeks.
