Halberd discovers HTTP load balancers. Halberd is useful for web application security auditing and for load balancer configuration testing.

To cope with heavy traffic loads, web site administrators often install load balancer devices. These machines hide (possibly) many real web servers behind a virtual IP.

They receive HTTP requests and redirect them to the real web servers in order to share the traffic between them. Halberd is a tool aimed at discovering real servers behind virtual IPs.

Installation:

To install the program you need to execute:

python setup.py install
