The Foreman installer is a collection of Puppet modules that installs everything required for a full working Foreman setup.
It uses native operating system packaging (`.rpm` or `.deb` packages) and adds necessary configuration for the complete installation.

Components include the Foreman web UI, Smart Proxy, a Puppet server, TFTP, DNS and DHCP servers.
It is configurable and the Puppet modules can be read or run in "no-op" mode to see what changes it will make.
This guide describes the quickest way to get a {ProjectServer} up and running.
For a full installation guide, see {InstallingServerDocURL}[_{InstallingServerDocTitle}_].
