Captive Portal

Hi Simon,

Thank you for the suggestions, but to add the subclasses statements into
the config I need to stop the service and start the service, when I get
multiple clients request it may lead to crash of my dhcp service because of
multiple stops and starts
do we have any way where I can include the statements into some other file
and include that into the main config file? or can we use any omapi to load
the statements dynamically without restarting the service

Thanks
