What routers do you use to terminate your L2 and issue your dhcp? Most
support /32 in some way or another. you really dont need the option 121
just a /32 with a default works. I have done this on juniper, cisco,
mikrotik, netelastic, and nokia. Some of those vendors require a BNG
license to support it fully though. You can do standard /24 /23 etc you
just need to configure isolation on your switches/OLT/APs. The biggest
drawback to that is customers can not reach each other and in some
instances this is problematic. Like if a someone wants to play a game
with their neighbor.
The simple answer is look for some BNG "Broadband Network Gateway"
software it will probably have all the features you would want and will
support it well.

We have always used PPPoE in the past. Just happen to be what our first system
23 years ago was based on and we just stuck with it. We are setting up a new
area with all new equipment. Looking at setting it up as DHCP. Looks like I
can do some DHCP radius stuff and our new equipment will inject data via option
82 if I want.
The issue I can't wrap my head around is security. If I just setup a normal
DHCP server, all clients will be on the same LAN. That would not be good.
I'm looking at option 121 and /32 addresses. But, I don't think all
residential routers support 121.
VLANs are another option, but I don think they will scale well.
I feel like I'm missing some type of simple answer.
