In their own words

OpenWISP

OpenWISP is a free, open-source network deployment and management system built on Linux OpenWrt. It supports API, Linux, self-hosted and web environments in a hybrid deployment model. Reusable templates, tags, group templates and dynamic variables organize configurations for devices, groups and organizations, while policy automation and API access are available. Administrators can create VPN configurations and cryptographic keys or certificates for WireGuard, OpenVPN and ZeroTier. Monitoring covers ping success, round-trip time, Wi-Fi clients, mobile signal quality, traffic patterns and access technology. Firmware upgrades work on individual devices or in batches. The RADIUS module supports SMS verification, user management, social login, SAML single sign-on, session limits, Change of Authorization and REST access. Hotspot captive portals support registration, authentication, phone verification, social login and paid subscriptions. Commercial support and sponsorship plans are available.
