How to install .rpm file from a directory using yum?

Hello Everybody,

I am having a cluster which is not connected to internet. I want to check its performance do I downloaded required packages from the internet and copied them in a particular folder. As per the instructions given at
http: //manyrootsofallevilrants.blogspot.in/2012/04/hpc-beowulf-style-cluster-using-centos.html

The instructions are as :

Install compilers and libraries (Note that development packages were obtained from http: //isoredirect.centos.org/centos/6/os/x86_64/Packages/ and yum was run from the directory containing them):
yum -y install atlas blas lapack atlas-devel-3.8.4-1.el6.x86_64.rpm

But when I run the above command I get an error message as :

Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, security
loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
could not retrieve mirrorlist http //mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=6&arch=i386&repo=os error was
14 pycurl error 7 couldn't connect to host
error cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: base

Can somebody tell me how to solve this problem and install the packages from directory using yum.

Thanks.
