I'm having some issues with the acct-session-id, where special characters for instance [] being converted to it's hex equivalent.

See the "safe-characters" configuration in the SQL module.

For example below, the Acct-Session-Id = "301[]426932183" when inserted into the accounting table it is inserted as 301=5B=5D426932183.

Hmm... not many NASes send "[]" in Acct-Session-Id, for precisely this reason. What NAS is it? Why is it sending those attributes?

I have noticed the same happens with the sql-group.

Please advise how I could insert the data as received without conversion.

Read the SQL configuration. This *is* documented. Alan DeKok.
