We do something similar to this, actually. However, while we used to run a
query against the database, something changed with the upgrade to 4.0 that
caused that to stop working. They'd be listed as "unregistered" in the
database, but still have access. I was able to put together a pfcmd
command that would do it, though. Here's what I have:
/usr/local/pf/bin/pfcmd node edit [mac address]
status="unreg",unregdate="[datetime in YearMonthDayHourMinuteSecond format]"
We use a Perl script to generate the list of Mac addresses, and then loop
through them with this command.
