  That means that the radutmp file will not be updated.
In RFC 2866 is stated:
...
      Either NAS-IP-Address or NAS-Identifier MUST be present in a
      RADIUS Accounting-Request.  It SHOULD contain a NAS-Port or NAS-
      Port-Type attribute or both unless the service does not involve a
      port or the NAS does not distinguish among its ports.
....
  Yes, so?
  The server still logs the accounting packet.  It just can't update
radutmp.
As the NAS is a WLAN AP with just one WLAN it might be standard  
compliant
not transmitting the NAS-Port.
  Yes.
Is there a way for the freeRadius to accept those request without  
NAS-Port
value ?

  FreeRADIUS is already accepting the request.  See the "detail" file,
where the request is logged.
right, there are the "start" messages, it seems that the NAS does not send  
a "stop" messages
