It does run Linux under the hood and I believe ISC DHCP. Essentially, I think they have tapped into the lease hooks ISC provided and run custom scripts. I’ve never seen the code but that’s what I expect based on some ISC customization I’ve done to populate database information when a lease is issued or released.

The telco I sold my WISP to used it as well. I always wondered why, but never asked. I just assumed it was one of those "If it's free, it can't be good" decisions made by a pointy-haired boss. I just checked into their website. There's a chart there on the home page that shows how obviously awesome it is and how obviously un-awesome the open source ones are. Mostly marketing hype I'd guess. In fact, I'd bet it's an open source DHCP server dressed up in a pretty package with fancy reports and such.
