[c-nsp] Wireless AP management software

[Bill Wichers]

Is there anyone out there that can recommend a good/decent wireless access
point software package that supports the Cisco AP line and can support
user logins (think public and subscriber access)?

What we're doing is putting APs in the lobbies and cafeterias of buildings
on our metro Ethernet network, then trunking them back using VLANs to one
of our datacenters. What we need is something we can run on a server in
the datacenter that can present users on the APs with login screens and
handle things like firewalling, session timeouts, traffic limits, etc.
We'd prefer something open source if possible.

Any ideas or recommendations?
