How to manually install emacs packages? I am unable to acess github
The packages available via the built-in package manager once configured do not come from GitHub though they may be developed there. They come from GNU ELPA NonGNU ELPA and MELPA. You would still need internet access though.

Use Portage instead of package.el for managing Emacs packages
To install elisp packages system-wide under the Portage control you can use gs-elpa. Read layman documentation before using it, as gs-elpa represents ELPA repositories as g-sorcery overlays. It currently supports 4 repositories: gnu-elpa, marmalade, melpa and melpa-stable.

melpa mirror on air-gapped network
I run emacs at work on a system that does not access the internet, so I cannot utilize the package interface that pulls directly from melpa (and elpa etc). Years ago, someone copied a version of melpa into a local directory on the air-gapped server. In my init.el, I setq package-archive to something like (("local-melpa" . "/path/to/the/melpa/dir")) so that it points to this local directory. I'm wondering if there is a tool to facilitate this sort of mirroring? I would like to update my packages on this air-gapped network. I am able to copy files onto the system from a less restricted workstation with internet access. Is it just a matter of unzipping the melpa repo and pointing package-archive to the fresh melpa directory?

Emacs *Network Security Manager* reporting 'certificate has expired' that...hasn't.
I get similar connection-security messages when attempting to connect to the package archive at https://elpa.nongnu.org/ —again, in both *Package* and in *eww*—while elpa.gnu.org seems to be just flat out nonresponsive. However, other https sites including https://duckduckgo.com/about and https://twitter.com work just fine.

Requests for packages to add to NonGNU ELPA?
I am working on adding more packages to NonGNU ELPA, the new package archive enabled by default from Emacs 28 onwards. Compared to GNU ELPA, there is no need for a copyright assignment (the only requirement is that packages do not endorse non-free software, but that is the case for most Emacs-related software to begin with).

savannah.gnu.org DNS problems?
(and thinking about strategies around this. there is elpa-mirror, which allows for the creation of local Emacs package repos, but I wonder about a good way of automating periodic updates to the mirrored repo without necessarily updating the packages of the local running Emacs.)

Lazy loading and lazy installation of packages
You could use https://github.com/redguardtoo/elpa-mirror before migrating your setup. The elpa-mirror create a local repository from you installed packages. Then you can use the local repository to replace remote repository during migration. As its README said, "15 seconds to install 115 packages".

melpa mirror on air-gapped network
Thanks for that. I downloaded a .zip from this resource which is maintained with elpa-mirror. I unpacked the .zip on the walled-off system, and I now have an up-to-date package archive online after modifying my ~/.emacs.d/init.el.
