I think that first to look at is network design. With proper
design such as vlans, secondary ip addresses, and proper dhcp
config.

I have ta similar requirement, but not as large. I have daily
guest [dozens], with vlans and dhcp they can access the internet,
but have absolutely no access or cause damage to any of the
internal resources.
