The tool you are after to create a local copy of the repositories is 'reposync', it's part of the 'yum-utils' package:

    https://access.redhat.com/solutions/23016

In that example it sets it up to be shared via HTTP but you could also share it as an NFS mount etc., on the other end you need to create a .repo file (or update the existing ones) in /etc/yum.repos.d pointing at the new copy of the repositories local to your network.
