You could probably do a really short DHCP lease on the initial walled garden IP, I don't know how short DHCP Patriot supports, but I would imagine the shortest would probably still be 60 seconds.

Be nice to make it so that a DSL modem/router could power up and just start working without any power cycling.

We have had a DHCPatriot system for about 5 years. We love it. It’s essentially a captive portal. When a user first connects, they get a private IP and policy routing forces them to the portal. When the user authenticates, the system uses a local user database or RADIUS to authenticate the them and if successful, ties the MAC address to a username. Now that the user is known, they reboot their device (or release/renew or wait a few minutes) and the system assigns an IP address from the authenticated address pool.

Infoblox looks like it has a few more features (some DNS and IPAM stuff).

If you’re in the market for something like the DHCPatriot system, I recommend getting a demo.

I thought it was pretty interesting. Infoblox has a nice DHCP server too.
