RE: (Free)RADIUS Front-End

[Philip Loenneker <Philip.Loenneker () tasmanet com au>]

Splynx is a commercial product designed to be an entire package for running an ISP, including billing etc. It uses 
FreeRadius in the backend which chains into their own RADIUS system. Integration for MikroTik routers is very 
extensive, but we have had it working with a variety of other BNGs too including Cisco and Linux-based systems. You can 
add in RADIUS dictionaries and customise the router profiles via the GUI to send whatever VSAs you require, including 
for COA. The APIs on it are extensive, making automation of service provisioning relatively easy. The IPAM in it is 
fairly basic, primarily ensuring that you don't re-use IPs between multiple services. IPv6 support is included, but 
primarily for IPv6-PD rather than interface IPs, however I have managed to get a BNG to assign an IPv4 address, an IPv6 
interface address and IPv6-PD all from the Splynx profile. The accounting is ok, allowing you to apply bandwidth caps 
on users if required, including different speeds for different times of day.

Thanks, Tyler.

My use-case is really for broadband subscriber management. Let me ping 
them and see what we can work out.
