Address management that scales with the subscriber base
The CALATECH Enterprise DHCP Solution gives you a scalable, configurable platform for DHCP across dynamic network environments, with reliability and metrics built in rather than bolted on.
Why packaged DHCP starts to hurt
Cost that grows with your estate
Per-seat and per-scope licensing means every new subscriber quietly raises your running cost.
Lease exhaustion nobody saw coming
Scopes fill up. Without visibility, the first sign is subscribers who cannot get an address.
No backup you have tested
A DHCP server carrying live scopes, with a backup nobody has ever restored from.
Built for production
Flexible deployment, sized and configured to your estate.
Virtual infrastructure, physical servers or virtualised hardware, whichever suits your estate.
Primary and secondary in a failover relationship, so a single server outage does not stop address assignment.
Utilisation per scope surfaced into monitoring, so you see exhaustion building before it bites.
Built on established open-source DHCP software. No proprietary format, no lock-in.
Configuration and lease state backed up, with a restore path that has been tested.
Static reservations, vendor options and relay configuration handled cleanly.
What it gives you
Runs where you need it
Virtual, physical or virtualised hardware, matched to your estate rather than dictated to it.
No per-seat licence
Licence-free operation with flexible support, so growth does not multiply your cost.
Failover and metrics built in
Automated backups and per-scope metrics as standard, not as a paid add-on.
What you get
Failover pairs carrying your scopes, so a single outage does not stop address assignment.
Utilisation metrics wired into monitoring, so exhaustion is a trend you see, not a surprise.
Your scopes, reservations and options in an open format you can read and audit.
Runbooks and notes, so your team can operate it without depending on us.
How it is delivered
Assess
We review your current DHCP: scopes, utilisation, failover and where the risks and licence costs sit.
Deploy
We build the platform, migrate your scopes, and run in parallel until address assignment is proven stable.
Operate
We monitor and support it under an agreed SLA, or hand it over documented for your own team.
Open-source DHCP software and open configuration formats. Nothing proprietary to lock into.
Licence-free. Your cost tracks support, not the number of subscribers.
Deployed as a failover pair, so a single server outage does not stop the network.
Runbooks included, so operating it is never dependent on a call to us.
Common questions
No. We build the new platform alongside the existing one and migrate scopes in a controlled way, with failover in place before cutover.
Yes. Primary and secondary in a failover relationship is the default deployment, not an extra.
Established open-source DHCP software, configured and hardened by us, in an open and portable format.
Yes. Per-scope utilisation is surfaced into monitoring so exhaustion is visible well before it affects subscribers.
Licence-free. You pay for deployment and any support you choose, not per seat or per scope.
