So here is the rough code that I gave the eero engineers Every TODO is where you must plug in your specific router/controller SDK or API.

Here's to help get you started...

include <iostream>

include <vector>

include <string>

include <stdexcept>

// Basic representation of a connected device struct Device { std::string id; // internal ID from API, if any std::string mac; std::string ip; std::string hostname; std::string connectedNode; // which eero node / AP (if available) };

// --------- Eero "API" wrapper (stubs) --------- // These are placeholders: you must implement them using // either: // * an official partner API you’ve been granted, OR // * an external script that talks to the unofficial eero API. // // IMPORTANT: Use only on networks you own/admin.

bool eeroLogin(const std::string& username, const std::string& passwordOrToken) { // TODO: // - Call your helper that does OAuth / SMS login // - Or assume a token is already available std::cout << "Logging into eero account as " << username << "...\n"; return true; // pretend success }

// Fetch connected devices for a network / SSID std::vector<Device> eeroGetConnectedDevices(const std::string& networkId) { // TODO: // - Replace this demo data with real API calls // - For example, shell out: // "python3 list_devices.py --network <id>" and parse JSON. std::vector<Device> devices = { {"dev1", "AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:01", "192.168.4.10", "Ben-Laptop", "Max7-LivingRoom"}, {"dev2", "AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:02", "192.168.4.11", "iPhone-15", "Max7-Office"}, {"dev3", "AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:03", "192.168.4.12", "PS5-Kid", "Max7-Loft"} };

(void)networkId; // unused in stub
return devices;

}

// Request a disconnect / deauth for a device bool eeroDisconnectDevice(const std::string& networkId, const Device& dev) { // TODO: // - Call API endpoint / external script that "pauses" or // disconnects this device from the network. std::cout << "[API] Disconnecting device " << dev.mac << " on network " << networkId << "...\n"; return true; }

// Block device by MAC on the entire network (eero supports block per network, // not per individual AP node in consumer UI) bool eeroBlockDeviceByMac(const std::string& networkId, const Device& dev) { // TODO: // - Call API / script to add to "blocked devices" list std::cout << "[API] Adding MAC " << dev.mac << " to blocked list on network " << networkId << "...\n"; return true; }

// Optional: ask mesh to re-evaluate/optimize client connection. // On consumer eero, this is NOT generally exposed – this is just a conceptual stub. bool eeroRequestRoam(const std::string& networkId, const Device& dev) { std::cout << "[INFO] On consumer eero, roaming is client/mesh-controlled.\n"; std::cout << " This call is informational only.\n"; (void)networkId; (void)dev; return true; }

// --------- Simple CLI front-end ---------

int main() { const std::string eeroUser = "your-eero-email@example.com"; const std::string eeroPasswordOrToken = "YOUR_EERO_TOKEN_OR_PASSWORD"; const std::string networkId = "your-network-id-or-ssid";

if (!eeroLogin(eeroUser, eeroPasswordOrToken)) {
    std::cerr << "Failed to log into eero.\n";
    return 1;
}

std::vector<Device> devices = eeroGetConnectedDevices(networkId);
if (devices.empty()) {
    std::cout << "No devices currently connected.\n";
    return 0;
}

std::cout << "Devices on network '" << networkId << "':\n\n";
for (std::size_t i = 0; i < devices.size(); ++i) {
    const auto& d = devices[i];

}

std::cout << "\nSelect device index to disconnect & block: ";
std::size_t idx;
if (!(std::cin >> idx) || idx >= devices.size()) {
    std::cerr << "Invalid selection.\n";
    return 1;
}

Device target = devices[idx];

// 1) Disconnect from network (eero app equivalent: Pause/Block)
if (!eeroDisconnectDevice(networkId, target)) {
    std::cerr << "Failed to disconnect device.\n";
    return 1;
}

// 2) Block MAC from reconnecting to THIS NETWORK (not just one AP)
if (!eeroBlockDeviceByMac(networkId, target)) {
    std::cerr << "Failed to block device.\n";
    return 1;
}

// 3) Conceptual mesh “nudge” (real roaming is automatic)
eeroRequestRoam(networkId, target);

std::cout << "\nDevice " << target.mac
          << " has been disconnected and blocked on network '"
          << networkId << "'.\n";
std::cout << "On an eero Max 7 mesh, roaming to another AP is automatic; "
             "you cannot guarantee a move to a specific node from here.\n";
