An basic Idea. As you are a company hosting thousand of CentOS box, I think a redirector (CISCO's WCCP & Squid) might help.
Other then that, you must have traffic redirection system, which might help, though I am not sure what kind of redirector your DCs have.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to steer mirror traffic to your own mirrors without logging into the boxes? We have two public mirrors (one in each of our DCs) and would love to reduce the load on external mirrors, but manually changing the settings of tons of production boxes (many of which we don't even have access to) is not really an option. Most/all of the boxes have the default yum config (fastestmirror plugin).
Any ideas are welcome.
