This depends on the NAS. If it doesn't supply radius with the correct value, then the accounting will be wrong. I'm not sure this is a limitation of freeradius or the NAS/DHCP server that authenticates through radius. Is the NAS sending correct values to radius, which radius is dropping? I think freeradius uses an integer value, I don't know how many bytes that allows in standard C code...
