I have the same problem and this by configured my nas to discard the
session timeout.

It would be nice if you could have a config parameter if the system
should return session-timeout for the specific sqlcounter or return it
as another 'defined by admin' radius attribute (for octets in the case
of Nomadix lets say: Nomadix-MaxBytesDown/Nomadix-MaxBytesUp)
