It's essentially the same thing Jesse mentioned just in a commercial product 
with some management wrapped around it.  Linux underneath the hood and a basic 
yet functional web UI.  RADIUS integration, RADIUS forwarding, local users, 
etc.  It has captive portal functionality so you can identify what username has 
what IP and MAC address.  You can pre-auth users (xbox/playstation only types 
out there) as well as suspend users with a custom message.  You can do static 
IP as well.  They also have a basic API so you can do some integrations.  We 
supply routers so when we know the MAC we pre-auth the customer.  Makes a more 
seamless experience for the customer.

They support IPv6 as well. 

Happy to answer any questions.  😊

Subject: [AFMUG] DHCP Server Redundancy Survey

I want to do a more flexible/standard setup for my DHCP handouts.

I hand out public IPv4 and IPv6 dual stack to each customer router from two 
main routers on my network.

Is it best to create two redundant DHCP servers instead and use DHCP Relay 
on-net to them?

And how is everyone doing that?

I'm guessing it's probably best to have those two redundant DHCP servers be 
RADIUS controlled so billing systems can easily integrate with them.
