As an ISP, you might consider blocking malware sites. OpenDNS used to be free for anyone that wanted to use it, businesses included, but they changed their terms of service. What they told us was the free service used a database that didn't get updated very frequently, and filtered about 5000 malware sites. When you used the paid for service, there were like 100,000 malware sites in that database. We met with them awhile back, when they were still developing their Active Directory implementation.

    What dns name solvers do you use to hand out to your customers via
    DHCP and why? Today we just hand out Google's 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
    as a name resolvers. I recently learned about OpenDNS's free
    service for homes where a home user can monitor and potentially
    block certain websites, but that would require the home to signup
    at open dns, and then enter open DNS in their router. However if
    we handed out OpenDNS's IPs instead of googles, and provided a
    gateway, then that would remove that step of the client having to
    enter opendns IPs into their router right?

    Does OpenDNS have a service for ISP's? That gives us insight as to
    where traffic on our network is heading based dns lookups? I know
    about Netflow etc, but doing this though DNS seems like a cool
    option as well. We wouldn't want to block anything as an ISP, but
    it would be useful to know the top visited site by our customers
    is facebook.co m <http://facebook.com> for example.

    If not OpenDNS, then is there some other hosted DNS service for
    ISP's?
