1 Introduction
The Kemp LoadMaster load balancing solution works with the HP ProLiant series, enabling
customers to deploy full-feature, high-performance load balancers. This can reduce network design
complexity as well as increased performance. The HP ProLiant servers are flexible, high performing
and have enterprise-class uptime. The Kemp solution is designed to handle load balancing for
application-to-application connections for external/internet based connections to web services.
This document describes the steps required to install the Kemp LoadMaster software on HP ProLiant
servers using DL320 and DL380 as examples.
PXE and USB booting options are also supported by the
LoadMaster installation ISO file.
