Why? I can't find any such requirements in RFC 2866.
The RFC's miss a *lot*. It is permissible for a multi-homed NAS to send an accounting "start" from one IP, "update" from another IP, and "stop" from a third IP. While this is insane, there is equipment that behaves this way.
If the session lasts less than .5 seconds then an Acct-Session-Time of 0 makes perfect sense. IMHO.
Hmm... I still don't like it.
I can agree that the near simultaneous start and stop requests indicates some error, but as suggested by Dinh Pham Cong it may be a user disconnecting immediately after the session is established. That happens.
Yes. Alan DeKok.
