Freeradius can't disconnect a user, except by sending CoA Packets to the
NAS. But in your case, the NAS is down.

I guess you're keeping the accounting information in a database or
something. You need to run an expiration query so the session is marked
closed when freeradius doesn't hear from the NAS for a certain amount of
time.

Search through the list as this came up a few weeks ago.
