The LoadMaster Operating System (LMOS) Long Term Support (LTS) release branch (7.2.48.x) is maintained essentially as a bridge between older releases and the LTSF release branch (see the previous LTSF section). It is only updated for critical bugs and security issues. See the Release Notes for more information on each release.

Note: The LTS release contains the legacy version of the LoadMaster Web Application Firewall (WAF) feature, which has been deprecated. To obtain the latest version of WAF and receive automated rule updates, install either the LTSF or GA version of LoadMaster.
