For capacity, speed, features, scalability, extensibility,
configurability, automation, monitoring - Nominum's "DCS" software is
unparalled. Oh, and it has full IPv6 support.

Not to denigrate Dibbler, or ISC's DHCP server, both of which are
excellent, but they do not stand comparison with DCS. It is truly
industrial strength, in world where that phrase is badly over-used.

The flip side - DCS is VERY expensive.

I'm not a shareholder, just a very satisfied user. Happy to answer
questions off-list.
