Cris is right: it may be handy. But it also brings trouble in several
situations.
If you want to get rid of these records, you go to:
Ethernet/Mod Config/Accounting (this is a menu tree in MAX config window.
Every MAX owner knows it very well... ;-)
And set "Allow Stop Only" to "No"
It prevents Stop records that don't have correspondent Start to be sent to
Radius server.
Cheers.
