Since the vendor or the ACS community has not integrated ACS with Kemps, you
can workaround the situation as below:

1) Spin up your VMs
2) Note down the IPs of the VMs
3) Run the Kemps in the same network or atleast ensure that the Kemp can
route traffic to the VM subnet
4) Configure your VIP on the Kemp and add the VMs are reals
5) Modify VM’s ACLs to allow inbound traffic from the VIP


With the Kemp integration into cloudstack, all of this should be doable
from the ACS UI itself but that will have to wait.

Looks straightforward enough to get started on ACS.
