# Choose an Installer

> Select the OpenXDR KVM Installer that matches the component, topology, and network model you need to deploy.

# Choose an Installer

Choose one installer based on the deployment target, topology, and network requirements.

| Installer | Use it for | Primary network characteristics | Current step count |
| - | - | - | -: |
| `DP-Installer.sh` | DL-master / DA-master Data Processor | NAT + Cluster Bridge/SR-IOV | 14 |
| `Sensor-Installer.sh` | Standard Modular Sensor | NAT/Bridge + SPAN PCI/Bridge | 10 |
| `AIO-Sensor-Installer.sh` | Integrated AIO Data Processor + Sensor | NAT + Sensor SPAN PCI Passthrough | 13 |

> Deploy a Data Processor based on DL-master and DA-master.

> [card] [Standard Sensor](https://kvm.xdr.ooo/installers/sensor.md)
>
> Use for standard Sensor deployments requiring NAT/Bridge management and PCI/Bridge SPAN options.

> Deploy AIO and Sensor together on one KVM host.

## Decision Guide

**1. Need DL and DA Data Processor VMs?**

Use **DP-Installer.sh**. It includes DP image preparation, DL/DA deployment, SR-IOV/CPU affinity, Appliance CLI installation, and NFS backup configuration.

**2. Need only a Standard Modular Sensor?**

Use **Sensor-Installer.sh**. It handles Sensor storage, VM deployment, and network/SPAN configuration.

**3. Need AIO and Sensor on one host?**

Use **AIO-Sensor-Installer.sh**. It deploys AIO first, then continues with the Sensor path on the same host.
